title: Google cloud_sql_proxy keep my connection alive
body: <p>I'm making a connection between a Google Compute Engine instance and a Google Cloud SQL instance, using the Cloud SQL Proxy.
  Using <a href="https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/mysql/connect-compute-engine" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this</a> tutorial,  I have managed to establish a connection by running this command:</p>
  
  <pre><code>./cloud_sql_proxy -instances=&lt;INSTANCE_CONNECTION_NAME&gt;=tcp:3306
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, when I quit the terminal instance I used to enter the above command the connection is lost.</p>
  
  <p>How can i keep the connection alive throughout?</p>
