Hard to say without more context, but you shouldn't have to stick ridigly to the source sentence, especially since it seems pretty nonsensical. I would simply go for 'regular updates' or 'a regular update process'.

| installation of updates
Explanation:
is what I would use in this particular context ('...installation of updates and patches'). However, if you regard 'Wartung und Aktualisierung' as a semantic unit, you could also say 'maintanance and updating using updates and patches' (why not?)

| enhanced/advanced versions
Explanation:
Da hier in der Aufzählung Patches und Updates neben einander stehen, darf man ohne Weiteres annehmen, das es sich bei den Updates um die üblichen regelmäßigen kleinen Weiterentwicklungen handelt. Manchmal reichen ein paar Patches aus, um zusammengefasst ein neues Update und damit eine neue Versionsnummer zu rechtfertigen.
Wie zum Beispiel ein Update von einer Version 2.6.11.9 auf 2.6.11.10
Was für ein Glück, dass da noch steht "o. ä.". Da gibt in der Übersetzung einige Freiheit.
