From experience: That level of maintenance only grows to sysadmin proportions at a scale where you can hire a sysadmin.

These systems largely run themselves, indefinitely.

Not to mention there's a lot of SysAdmins out there that will do the job very well for a lot less than $60K a year. You don't need to hire a SysAdmin who used to work on Google sized infrastructure to run your internal startup's IT.
