Debian is an OS which uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually set up on personal computers, it is being used on a growing number of web servers too. The reason is that it's really stable, so a server running it will not have to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be among the most protected Operating Systems out there, because security patches are released within days after an issue is discovered. This is possible because thousands of experienced developers are working for the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, they also provide 24/7 support through special e-mail lists and reply within 20 minutes to any question. In this light, you will 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 among the Linux releases 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 all the packages in any way you see fit. Furthermore, you will not have to pay any kind of license fees.

Debian in VPS Servers

You're able to pick the Debian Operating System with each and every VPS server plan that we provide. 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS are some of the options that you will find on the order page, so you can pick the one that is more suitable for the software that you would like to install and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be set up either devoid of Control Panel or with our in-house made Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you have more freedom, considering that 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 restricted, yet you can control your web content through a web interface, not a console. In case you do not have much time to manage your Debian-powered server, or in case you do not have a lot of experience, you are able to add the Managed Services upgrade to your plan and our admins will take care of the regular OS updates.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

Each dedicated server that we provide can be set up with Debian and we'll test the program environment thoroughly before we hand over your server to make sure that it'll perform flawlessly. You'll be able to choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version during the signup process, so the apps which you set up can get the maximum out of your server. We can also keep your Operating System up-to-date if you add the optional Managed Services package to your plan. In case you order your Debian-driven server without a website hosting Control Panel, you will be able to do anything you like with your machine and you will have full root-level access, yet you will need to be more skillful, since all of the tasks will be performed using a Secure Shell console. If you order your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you'll get a web interface, through which you'll be able to manage domains, files, databases, and many others, and this might be a better option in case you are not very experienced, but a certain app that you'd like to use requires Debian. You'll have access to your Hepsia-equipped server through SSH too, however the things that you can do will be restricted.
