Debian is an Operating System which uses the Linux kernel. Though 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 is 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, as security patches are released within days after a problem is discovered. This is possible since thousands of experienced developers are employed by the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, in addition, they provide 24/7 support through special mailing lists and respond in twenty minutes to any question. Thus, you'll enjoy 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 several Linux releases with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. Since the Operating System costs nothing to use, you are able to modify both the core and all the packages in any way you see fit. Furthermore, you won't have to pay any kind of license fees.
Debian in VPS Web Hosting
You will be able to obtain a Debian-powered virtual private server with all of our VPS plans 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 can make sure that the software environment will match the requirements of the applications which you need to run and that the latter will function efficiently. Throughout the order process, you can also decide if the VPS will come with our Hepsia Control Panel or without any Control Panel at all. The first option will give you a handy graphical interface, via which you're able to manage everything related to your world wide web presence using only a web browser - files, e-mail accounts, databases, and the like. Without Control Panel at hand, you will have to do everything through a console, but you will have full root access and you can set up any software that may not be supported by Hepsia. You can also add our optional Managed Services package, that includes regular Operating System updates.
Debian in Dedicated Servers Hosting
Each dedicated server that we offer can be set up with Debian and we'll test the program environment thoroughly before we hand over the machine in order to make sure that it'll perform flawlessly. You are able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version throughout the sign-up process, so that the applications which you install will be able to get the maximum out of your server. We will also maintain your OS up-to-date when you add the additional Managed Services package to your plan. In case you get your Debian-driven server without a hosting Control Panel, you'll be able to do anything you want with your machine and you will have full root-level access, however you will have to be more skillful, since all of the tasks will be performed through a Secure Shell console. When you order your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you'll receive a web interface, through which you will be able to control domains, files, databases, and many others, and this might be the best option in case you aren't very experienced, but a specific app which you wish to use requires Debian. You have access to your Hepsia-equipped server through SSH too, yet the things that you can do are limited.
