Debian is an Operating System that uses the Linux kernel. Even though it is usually set up on desktops, it is being used on a growing number of web servers as well. The reason is that it is really stable, so a server running it will not have to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being among the most safe Operating Systems you can get, as security patches are released within days after a problem is found. This is possible since thousands of well-trained 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 through special e-mail lists and reply within 20 minutes to any question. Thus, you'll receive top-level 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 releases with the highest number of packages - more than 30,000. As the Operating System is completely free to use, you will be able to modify both the core and any of the packages in any way you see fit. Furthermore, you will not have to pay any kind of license fees.

Debian in VPS Hosting

You can select the Debian Operating System with each virtual private server plan that we provide. 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 set up and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be installed either without Control Panel or with our tailor-made Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you will have more freedom, due to the fact that you will have full root access and you can make use of the advantages and the full functionality provided by Debian. In the second case, the root access will be restricted, however you're able to control your web content through a web interface, not a console. In case you don't have much time to take care of your Debian-powered server, or in case you don't have substantial experience, you are able to add the Managed Services upgrade to your plan and our administrators will take care of the weekly OS updates.

Debian in Dedicated Web Hosting

Each dedicated server that we provide can be set up with Debian and we will test the software environment completely before we hand over the machine in order to ensure that it'll perform flawlessly. You can choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version throughout the signup process, so the apps 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 obtain your Debian-driven server without a web hosting Control Panel, you will be able to do anything you want with your machine and you'll have full root-level access, yet you will need to be more experienced, since all the tasks will be performed through a Secure Shell console. When you get your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you will receive a web interface, through which you can manage domains, files, databases, and many others, and this might be a better option if you aren't very experienced, but a certain application which you want to use requires Debian. You'll have access to your Hepsia-equipped server through SSH as well, however the things that you'll be able to do will be limited.
