It sounds like you are integrating your web applications very deeply with Apache, if changes to Apache modules are such deal breakers.
What's wrong with MySql or Maria - I've toggled between the two with little problems. And given that I pretty much use it exclusively in docker, a database gets thrown around hosts all the time, and auto upgraded as the base image is updated upstream.

Good luck if you try to do it. The overwhelming joylessness of it is something I remember well.

Interesting, I always found web servers, nominally Apache a bigger pain for being difficult to upgrade
migrate. It seemed things were forever broken during that process while mail was for the most part fi
and forget. Might depend on your user volume and client spread though.

What would make Apache a difficult beast to upgrade?
You're right, its usually the ancillary stuff.. the PHP and what have you that break everything. I tend to leave the WWW server right alone unless I'm for whatever reason doing a complete
server upgrade from scratch. But I find if you upgrade Apache then all the modules get upgraded and break things.
Between whats current, whats deprecated, and what gets left out along the way it seems to be impossible to just pick up your data and move it to a new system or reliably upgrade any of the
modules without issues. In my experience.
More than possibly related to my poor coding on said platforms too. A lot of the stuff I use to drive http://pineapple.zapto.org, most being php and mysql is already deprecated not looking
forward to having to rebuild that at some point in the future... easier to leave it alone.

It sounds like you are integrating your web applications very deeply with Apache, if changes to Apache modules are such deal breakers.
PHP and Database migrations suck though. Specially if you use certain webapps which break compatibility with your current setup during
a
freaking point release. Because everybody knows moving from WebApp 2.1.1 to WebApp 2.1.1.1 is supposed to require you to move to the
nest major Mariadb and PHP releases. Ieeeaaaarghrhrhr
As already mentioned mysql is going maria, which thus far I haven't had any joy getting to run/work with. The mysql access I'm using in
PHP is already obsolete..what do you do? Same thing as if I met a green monster in a dark alley... leave it alone and let it ripen. I
can't see myself working up the enthusiasm to reinvent the wheel for another go.
