I think if we use ubuntu it's not effective, because for maintenance is very high

No clue what you're talking about - Ubuntu, like most LINUX distributions, is free and the updates are also free.

There is no "maintainance" that is very high on it.

Because monitoring 100 rigs on Ubuntu with no monitoring solution is very high maintenance.

use a windows PC/laptop with the right monitoring software then run the rigs with ubuntu it's actually is better easy to work with etc and the drivers for Ubuntu 15 and lower add monitoring any way .

What software let you put a preflashed OS on 500 rigs and control everything from a single file, with no need to connect to individual rigs?

depends what you want don't use ubuntu 16 right now it's to hard to set up with AMD cards till AMD comes out with drivers that work like they do with ubuntu 15 and lower then it gonna be the best way to do it from what i was able to run on ubuntu 16 , can't say about nvidia cards never like there cards much I owned a few, IVE been using AMD cards before AMD bought the company and see no reason to switch now . they all do the same thing in the long run etc .

I like Ethermine for rig monitoring. Why worry about "monitoring software" when you can just set up to let the POOL monitor for you on one easy-to-read page?

Most GOOD pools have similar capabilities - even P2Pool can manage THAT much.

It's not really changed much from early days - only ACTUAL change is use the most recent version of whichever miner you chose to run with.

Ubuntu 14.04 is still the "go to" distribution for mining.
