Each and every virtual or dedicated server has its own Operating System and operates separately from the hosting servers of other customers. Updating the OS is usually neglected, but doing that could have lots of benefits for your internet sites. The most important reason to use the newest version is that patches are typically released to repair security holes in the Operating System code, so if you don't install the updates, you risk individuals with malicious intentions to use these holes and to get access to your content. OS updates are also released for enhanced functionality of the system as a whole and for much better compatibility with the hardware on the market, which could instantly affect the performance of your internet sites. If the functionality and the security of your scripts is the reason to update them, you might also find out that their newest versions require an updated Operating System in order to operate effectively, thus keeping the Operating system up-to-date is always a good idea.
