Go for it. Because it's not a "distribution" type of platform like Linux, there's less chance for differences like Ubuntu vs CentOS/RHEL. It would make each deployment easier to troubleshoot because there are less variables. Also, I think FreeBSD is a rolling release and does not require upgrades, just updates.

@rjcrystal It's rock solid, even Netflix uses it for their infrastructure if I'm not mistaken.

How reliable or better freebsd is? I was thinking to use it in production server instead of ubuntu 16 LTS. I've heard it has pretty good networking stack and whatsapp uses it in their prod machines.
