## Staying up to date
To stay up to date, deploy feature updates at an appropriate time after their release. You can use various management and update tools such as Windows Update, Windows Update for Business, Windows Server Update Services, Microsoft Configuration Manager, and non-Microsoft products to help with this process. [Upgrade Readiness](/windows/deployment/upgrade/upgrade-readiness-get-started), a free tool to streamline Windows upgrade projects, is another important tool to help.

Extensive advanced testing isn't required. Instead, only business-critical apps need to be tested, with the remaining apps validated through a series of pilot deployment rings. Once these pilot deployments have validated most apps, broad deployment can begin.
This process repeats with each new feature update. These are small deployment projects, compared to the large projects that were necessary with the old three-to-five-year Windows release cycles.
Other technologies such as BranchCache and Delivery Optimization, both peer-to-peer distribution tools, can help with the distribution of the feature update installation files.
