  • How Do You Keep It All Up-To-Date?

    Having to run a separate GUI installer for every single package sounds like a scalability nightmare. Including your DBMS, Web server, load balancer, memory cache, scripting languages, scripting language add-ons, Web server add-ons, library dependencies ... that could easily mount up to hundreds of separate installers, which means hundreds of separate updates needing to be managed. On a Linux system, keeping it all-to-date involves little more than typing "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade".
