Abstract
Technologies are described for updating a live system with static changes. According to some examples, changes such as installing and/or removing features may be applied to a cloud based service in live environment without disrupting the service. New software may be patched and installed on an upgraded machine (i.e., server). New features, diagnostics, and language packs may be added. Existing features and certificates may be removed. To accomplish these, new software to be installed and existing software to be removed may be detected. Removal and additions may be performed without preparation and activation of replacement farms.
