Debian is a Linux distribution, that is widespread for desktop machines, yet it's been gaining in popularity as a server OS over the last couple of years too. It is really dependable and risk-free, since fixes are released within a couple of days after a problem is discovered. Debian has a huge support community, so if you have any kind of questions or troubles with the OS or with some of the 30,000+ packages it is equipped with, you can contact the developers immediately through electronic mail using special mailing lists and receive a response in 15-20 minutes. The Debian community offers the top level of support possible, because your questions will be handled by exactly the same people that built Debian in the first place, so they have an exhaustive knowledge of how their system operates. As the Operating System is 100% free to use and distribute, no license costs will be included with your hosting fees and you will be able to change the program code files and any additional software which you install without any restrictions, to optimize the software environment for your websites. Furthermore, Debian performs very well on any kind of hardware, as it is light and fast and does not require a lot of memory.

Debian in VPS Hosting

You'll be able to pick the Debian Operating System with each and every virtual private server plan that we offer. 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are among the options that you can find on the order page, which means that 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 installed either without any Control Panel or with our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you will have more freedom, since you will have full root access and you will be able to use the advantages and the full functionality offered by Debian. In the second case, the root access will be limited, but you'll be able to control your world wide web content through a web interface, not a console. If you don't have much time to manage your Debian-powered server, or in case you do not have a lot of experience, you're able to add the Managed Services upgrade to your package and our admins will take care of the weekly OS updates.

Debian in Dedicated Web Hosting

Each dedicated server that we supply can be set up with Debian and we will test the program environment in depth before we hand over your server to ensure that it'll perform perfectly. You will be able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version during the registration process, so the apps that you install can get the maximum out of your server. We will also maintain your OS up-to-date if you add the additional Managed Services package to your plan. In case 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, yet you'll need to be more experienced, as all the tasks will be performed through a Secure Shell console. When you order your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you will receive a web interface, through which you'll be able to control domains, files, databases, and many others, and this might be a better option in case you aren't very experienced, but a particular application that you intend to use requires Debian. You can access your Hepsia-equipped server through SSH as well, yet the things which you can do will be limited.
