There is an age-old debate over whether to stay on a given distribution and support it as an LTS release, or to adopt the latest and greatest versions and migrate the rest of the software. This session will discuss the opportunities and challenges for using and maintaining LTS distributions; including kernels, patching, maintenance, security updates and build reproducibility. Then, it will contrast and compare to a CI/CD approach with the different issues and rewards it presents. Do you even have to pick just one?
