Canonical extends Ubuntu LTS security and support to 15 years via the Legacy add-on for Ubuntu Pro. Coverage starts with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

Does #FreeBSD #kernel support #livepatching yet? I see some discussions here and there on the Internet. But I cannot find out if after all these discussions, the feature has been added or not.

Unpopular opinion: if your use case requires (or even significantly benefits from) #Linux #Kernel #livepatching, your use case is mostly likely broken.

If you've got such high availability requirements, you likely should be running a 2-3 node cluster and focus on reducing switch-over latency.

In exchange, you'll get protection against many more issues than the limited number of available live patches.

"We've always done it this way" is a common refrain in the world of #IT.

What if there was a way to modernize operations by shifting gears & adopting the latest method of doing things?
