Debian is an Operating System which uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually set up on desktop machines, it's being used on a growing number of web servers too. The reason is that it's very stable, so a server running it will not need to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being one of the most secure Operating Systems to choose from, since security patches are released within days after an issue is discovered. This is possible because thousands of well-experienced developers work for the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, they also provide 24/7 support by using special e-mail lists and respond within twenty minutes to any question. Thus, you'll receive 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 - over 30,000. As the Operating System costs nothing to use, you can modify both the core as well as all the packages in any way you see fit. Also, you won't have to pay any kind of license fees.
Debian in VPS Web Hosting
You'll be able to get a Debian-powered virtual private server with all of our VPS solutions and you'll be able to choose if the version which will be installed during the server setup process will be 32-bit or 64-bit. Thus, you'll make sure that the software environment will match the requirements of the applications that you want to run and that the latter will function appropriately. During the order process, you may also decide whether the VPS will come with our Hepsia Control Panel or without a Control Panel at all. The first option will provide you with an easy-to-use graphical interface, through which you will be able to manage everything related to your online presence using only an Internet browser - files, email addresses, databases, and the like. Without a Control Panel at hand, you'll have to do everything through a console, however you'll have full root access and you can install any software that may not be compatible with Hepsia. You can also add the optional Managed Services package, which includes regular Operating System updates.
Debian in Dedicated Servers Hosting
With all of our Linux dedicated servers hosting packages, you are able to obtain a web hosting powerhouse running Debian right away. This Operating System is one of the options that you'll get throughout the registration process and you can choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit version, depending on what software environment your apps need. If you wish to have full root access, you're able to order a server without a Control Panel, so you'll have more freedom when it comes to what you can do with the machine via SSH. When you have less experience, but you need Debian for a specific piece of software, you'll be able to acquire the server with our Hepsia Control Panel. Although the root access is more limited, you can do anything related to your web content with ease by means of an easy to use graphical interface. When you add the optional Managed Services bundle to your dedicated server plan, our sysadmins will handle the weekly OS updates. They will perform many other useful tasks on your behalf too.
