When doing it on CentOS, it's the old fashion way as RHEL does. Using stable
releases from few years ago. Well documented and troubleshooting notes from
both RHEL people and community (coz the configuration and settings are the
same even 2 - 3 years ago). Most servers are not in bleeding edge, less bugs
IMHO.

Ubuntu as server, easier  and must update. Fresh versions of packages, Newer
administration procedures etc. Newer version also means new bugs although
there are several bugs still not fixed yet, bug fixing interval is faster.

CentOS administration is well documented coz it crosses the RHEL and
community support. Ubuntu server on the other hand has active responses from
community though, easier and up to date packages.

Statistically, most of the current enterprise servers still uses RHEL/CentOS
systems.
