This would be a very long answer. I'd recommend you start reading the
Wikipedia entry on "init system" [1] to get a rough idea.

Init systems organize the start of a Unix/Linux-type system after the
kernel has booted. Usually the kernel starts a first process (which
typically gets the process ID (PID) 1, which starts everything else
the system needs to get into a useful state.

Very roughly speaking, SysV init consults a bunch of shell scripts
which reside in /etc/init.d to know what is to be started in which
order, whereas systemd has a bunch of files stating which services
depend on which others and starts them whenever they are needed.

Lots and lots of details (like socket activation with systemd) are
missing in the rough description above, of course.

Cheers
