Debian is an Operating System that uses the Linux kernel. Though it is usually set up on desktop computers, it is being used on more and more web servers too. The reason is that it is really stable, so a server running it won't have to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be one of the most secure Operating Systems to be found, as security patches are released within days after an issue is found. This is possible because thousands of well-trained developers are working for the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, in addition, they provide 24/7 support via special mailing lists and reply within 20 minutes to any question. Thus, you'll obtain an outstanding level of support directly from the developers who know their own platform in depth, and not from a third-party support team. Debian is also one of the Linux distributions with the highest number of packages - more than 30,000. Since the Operating System is free to use, you will be able to modify both the core as well as all the packages in any way you see fit. Furthermore, you won't need to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS Web Hosting

You are able to choose the Debian Operating System with each and every virtual private server package that we supply. 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are some of the options that you'll find on the order page, so you can pick the one that will be more suitable for the software that you need to install and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be installed either without any Control Panel or with our in-house made Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you have more freedom, since you will have full root access and you will be able to make use of the advantages and the full functionality offered by Debian. In the second case, the root access is limited, however you can manage your online content through a web interface, not a console. In case you do not have a lot of time to control your Debian-powered server, or if you don't have a lot of experience, you're able to add the Managed Services upgrade to your plan and our administrators will take care of the weekly OS updates.

Debian in Dedicated Servers Hosting

Each and every dedicated server that we supply can be installed with Debian and we'll test the program environment in depth before we hand over your machine to ensure that it will perform appropriately. You are able to choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release during the signup process, so that the apps that you set up can get the maximum out of your server. We will also keep your Operating System up-to-date if you add the optional Managed Services package to your plan. In case you acquire your Debian-driven server without a hosting Control Panel, you'll be able to do anything you want with the machine and you will have full root-level access, but you will have to be more skillful, as all of the tasks will be performed through a Secure Shell console. If you get your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you'll receive a web interface, through which you can manage domains, files, databases, etc, and this might be a better option when you aren't very experienced, and a particular app which you wish to use requires Debian. You have access to your Hepsia-equipped server via SSH too, but the things which you will be able to do are restricted.
