Debian is an OS that uses the Linux kernel. Even though it is usually set up on personal computers, it is being used on an increasing number of web servers too. The reason is that it is very stable, so a server running it won't have to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be one of the most risk-free Operating Systems to choose from, since security patches are released within days after a problem is found. This is possible because thousands of well-trained developers are part of the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, but they also provide 24/7 support via special mailing lists and reply in 20 min to any question. In this light, you'll get 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 completely free to use, you will be able to modify both the core as well as any of the packages in the way you see fit. Also, you will not be required to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS Hosting

You can pick 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 can find on the order page, which means that you can select the one that will be more suitable for the software that you would like to set up and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be set up either devoid of Control Panel or with our custom Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you have more freedom, considering that you will have full root access and you are able to make use of the advantages and the full functionality provided by Debian. In the second case, the root access will be limited, but you will be able to control your online content via a web interface, not a console. In case you don't have a lot of time to take care of your Debian-powered server, or in case you do not have much experience, you're able to add the Managed Services upgrade to your package and our admins will handle the weekly OS updates.

Debian in Dedicated Web Hosting

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