Subject: [PATCH] Switch to SIGTERM for graceful shutdown in `startup.sh`

Replaced the `curl` HTTP shutdown call with a `kill -TERM` signal to ensure the JVM shutdown hook executes cleanly. Added a `wait` command to block until the process finishes, enabling a more reliable and proper termination process.
