One of the problem with operating system updates is that you often need to reboot the system. While this is nothing but a minor nuisance for us desktop users, it's a bigger problem when it comes to servers. Ksplice is a technology that allows Linux kernel patches to be applied without actually restarting the kernel.

i'd be too scared to try it on any servers yet but it's in squeeze right now with no open bugs so i think i'll try it out on a few desktops next kernel update.
massive boon right there for an always on setup.
