This group is great, I learn so much from it.  I like the different opinion 
that everyone has, makes it more interesting.  At the beginning I was not too 
specific about where I would utilize these system structures.  This group 
brings another interesting point, what is the best file system for different 
applications.  If I had to build a new server for production environment, what 
would you suggest as partition and file system.

Thanks again,
Aldo

LOL.   ;-) 
ext4 is the most stable and least buggy option available to you.  That's why it 
is the default for all distributions.  Unless you want to suggest that every 
distribution maintainer is a bumbling group of fools.

Other filesystems are good in their own way, but ext4 is currently "the 
standard."  You should only go to another filesystem, for now, if it has some 
characteristic you care about that ext4 doesn't offer.  For me, this generally 
means snapshotting.  I evaluated btrfs about 2 years ago with poor success, but 
I am guessing it's probably good by now.
