Debian is an Operating System which uses the Linux kernel. Though it is usually set up on desktop computers, it's being used on an increasing number of web servers as well. The reason is that it is really stable, so a server running it won't need to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be one of the most risk-free Operating Systems to be found, due to the fact that security patches are released within days after an issue is found. This is possible since thousands of skilled developers are part of the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, they also provide 24/7 support via special mailing lists and respond in 20 min to any question. Thus, you'll obtain 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 among the Linux releases with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. Since the Operating System is completely free to use, you can modify both the core as well as all of the packages in any way you see fit. In addition, you won't be required to pay any kind of license fees.
Debian in VPS Web Hosting
You are able to acquire a Debian-powered virtual private server with all of our VPS packages and you will be able to choose if the version which will be installed during the server setup process will be 32-bit or 64-bit. This way, you can guarantee that the software environment will match the requirements of the applications that you wish to run and that the latter will function efficiently. Throughout the order process, you can also select whether the VPS will come with our Hepsia Control Panel or without Control Panel at all. The first option will give you a user-friendly graphical interface, via which you'll be able to manage everything related to your online presence using only a web browser - files, email addresses, databases, etc. Without Control Panel at hand, you'll need to do everything through a console, however you'll have full root access and you will be able to set up any software that may not be supported by Hepsia. You can also add our optional Managed Services package, which includes weekly Operating System updates.
Debian in Dedicated Servers Hosting
Each and every dedicated server that we provide can be installed with Debian and we will test the program environment in detail before we hand over the machine to ensure that it will perform properly. You'll be able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version throughout the signup process, so the applications which you set up will be able to get the maximum out of your server. We can also maintain your Operating System up-to-date when you add the optional Managed Services package to your plan. If you get your Debian-driven server without a website hosting Control Panel, you'll be able to do anything you want with your machine and you'll have full root-level access, however you will have to be more experienced, since all the tasks will be performed using a Secure Shell console. If you acquire your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you'll have a web interface, through which you'll be able to control domains, files, databases, etcetera, and this might be the best option when you are not very experienced, and a particular app which you would like to use requires Debian. You'll have access to your Hepsia-equipped server via SSH as well, yet the things which you will be able to do are limited.
