Debian is an Operating System which uses the Linux kernel. Though it is usually installed on personal computers, it's being used on more and more web servers too. The reason is that it's very stable, so a server running it won't have to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be among the most safe Operating Systems nowadays, since security patches are released within days after an issue is discovered. This is possible since thousands of skilled 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 mailing lists and respond within 20 minutes to any kind of question. Thus, you will get an outstanding level of support directly from the developers who know their own platform in detail, 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. As 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. In addition, you will not be required to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS

You're able to select the Debian Operating System with each and every virtual private server package that we offer. 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS are among the options that you'll find on the order page, so you can select the one that is more suitable for the software that you'd like to set up and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be installed either devoid of Control Panel or with our tailor-made Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you will have more freedom, considering that you will have full root access and you are able to take advantage of the advantages and the full functionality provided by Debian. In the second case, the root access is restricted, yet you will be able to control your online content through a web interface, not a console. In case you do not have much time to command your Debian-powered server, or in case you do not have much experience, you could add the Managed Services upgrade to your package and our administrators will take care of the regular OS updates.

Debian in Dedicated Hosting

You will be able to pick the Debian OS for your new dedicated server with only a single click on our order page and based on your choice, we will install the 32-bit or the 64-bit edition of the OS on the machine, to ensure that the software that you'll install later will perform in the optimal way. Choosing a server devoid of Control Panel, you'll get Debian and the Apache web server software and you're able to manage everything using a console. A server that is obtained with our Hepsia Control Panel will feature all of the software which you may need for your Internet sites. Though with the latter option the root access is restricted, you are able to control the server as if it were a shared web hosting account, so you can take advantage of a dedicated machine even if you don't have previous expertise in this type of website hosting service. If you buy our Managed Services upgrade, we'll maintain your server and will update its OS weekly in order to make sure that you have the most recent and most risk-free release.
