Debian is an OS that uses the Linux kernel. Though it is usually installed on desktops, it is being used on a growing number of web servers too. The reason is that it is really stable, so a server running it won't have to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be among the most secure Operating Systems out there, since security patches are released within days after an issue 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 via special mailing lists and reply within 20 minutes to any kind of question. In this light, you'll receive top-level support directly from the developers who know their own platform in depth, and not from a third-party support team. Debian is also one of several Linux distributions with the highest number of packages - more than 30,000. As the Operating System costs nothing to use, you can modify both the core as well as all of the packages in the way you see fit. In addition, you will not have to pay any kind of license fees.

Debian in VPS

You are able to select the Debian Operating System with each and every virtual private server package that we supply. 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 select 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 set up either with no Control Panel or with our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you will have more freedom, as you will have full root access and you're able to take advantage of the advantages and the full functionality offered by Debian. In the second case, the root access will be limited, yet you'll be able to manage your online content via a web interface, not a console. If you do not have a lot of time to manage your Debian-powered server, or if you don't have a lot of experience, you're able to add the Managed Services upgrade to your plan and our admins will take care of the weekly OS updates.

In case you have less experience, yet you need Debian for a specific computer program, you'll be able to get the server with our Hepsia Control Panel. Regardless that the root access will be more limited, you'll be able to do anything related to your online content without difficulty via an easy to use graphical interface. When you add the optional Managed Services bundle to your dedicated server plan, our system administrators will take care of the weekly OS improvements.
