Depends on the company and the system. Some of them need to be done off-hours while people aren’t using them. Some are HA and/or insignificant enough that you can do them any time without interruption.

I have not had any auto update in my entire career but i have always been on the infra side so it was never just my app. Though I do wish the update/outage process would be updated to reflect kubernetes and not just think of everything as monolithic servers.
