What is Patching or Patch Management?
Let say multiple system are installed in a organisation and all are connected to same domain controller(windows server 2012,2016,2024) and let say client system have win8 or win10 or win11.
Let say all client are connected to domain controller and are domain member.
Time to time windows do some updates in the operating system.So these updates need to be installed on the client systems.Patching or patch Management is the management of these updates on the client system.
Any provider like Microsoft, apple or Linux when create any operating system it tooks a lot of time in behind so every months or two they can not design new operating system so basically they introduce new features in the old operating system only, rather then building new operating system with new features, so what these organization's do is create patches and these upgrades are automatically being loaded to the windows all around the world.
Obviously there are background servers managed by these company which managed these operating system of all consumers all around the world, so when ever a new patch or upgrade is released these servers automatically upgrades for those users who have enabled auto update, and for others the notification area sent.
In sort patches are new upgrades on the operating system that must be installed in user system for smooth functioning of the system.
