Keep OrientDB server running on AWS EC2

I recently downloaded and managed to start an OrientDB server/database on an AWS EC2 Linux 14.04 (I think the name is) server for an application I want to set up. I started OrientDB “as usual” by running ./server.sh in the terminal via SSH link to the EC2 server. All works fine and I can query the database while at the computer. But as soon as I leave my computer and the SSH link is broken (for example when closing the computer), so is the database, i.e. it stops.

Is there a way to go around this or do I have to set up the database in some other way?
