Two things you want to do:
1) Split this into multiple boxes if you can. That makes maintaining
one component a lot easier, especially when you get to point 2, which is...
2) Redundancy/failover. Sure, it may be more expensive, but the first
time your HA failover changes a 2AM "Holy Crap" into an "Oh, bother" it
will be worth the price of admission....
