Keeping your Linux server up to date is essential for security — but applying kernel patches usually requires a reboot. And in today’s world of 24/7 uptime, even a few minutes of downtime can mean lost revenue or service disruption.
That’s why system administrators and hosting providers rely on KernelCare — a powerful tool that delivers live kernel patching without requiring reboots.
What Is KernelCare?
KernelCare is a live-patching service developed by CloudLinux that automatically applies security updates to the Linux kernel without rebooting the system. It’s ideal for web servers, cloud infrastructure, and enterprise environments where uptime and security are critical.
Why the Kernel Matters
The kernel is the core of your operating system. If it has a security vulnerability, your entire system is at risk. Kernel updates are released frequently — especially after the discovery of new exploits like Spectre, Meltdown, or Dirty COW.
Traditionally, applying these patches means:
-
Scheduling maintenance windows
-
Rebooting the server
-
Accepting service downtime
With KernelCare, that’s no longer necessary.
