With SysV Init, one could fairly easily control the order in which services were started (at boot) and killed (at shutdown) simpy by changing the Sxx or Kxx prefix of the scripts in /etc/rc.d/init.d (or /etc/init.d, depending on your distro), however this assumes that the entire startup process is serialised.
Just for clarification, recent year's openSUSE ignored the numbers in the link names, and this was documented. It also started scripts in parallel. Both features could be disabled, though. The order was defined at "insert" time of a service, by creating a kind of makefile (.depend.boot, .depend.halt, .depend.start, and .depend.stop), taking the decision based on certain pseudo-comments opn each script. These comments followed a documented standard, and even proprietary packages followed it (or tried to). I suppose that systemd has to properly work out the equivalent feature. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
