Debian is an OS that uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually installed on desktop machines, it's being used on an increasing number of web servers too. The reason is that it is really stable, so a server running it will not have to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be one of the most risk-free Operating Systems you can get, as security patches are released within days after a problem is found. This is possible since thousands of qualified developers work for the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, but they also provide 24/7 support via special e-mail lists and reply in 20 minutes to any kind of question. Thus, you'll enjoy 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 is completely free to use, you're able to modify both the core and all the packages in any way you see fit. In addition, you will not have to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS Servers

There are a few Operating Systems that we offer with our VPS web hosting plans and Debian is one of them, therefore when you need a server with this OS, you can acquire one in less than 1 hour. We also offer 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS to make sure that the VPS you'll obtain will fully cover the system requirements of any web or offline application that you need to install on the server. Controlling the content on the server can be done in two ways, according to the choice you make on the order page. With no Control Panel, you'll be able to do everything on your Debian-equipped server using Secure Shell, as you will have root-level access, whereas using the Hepsia Control Panel, the root access will have certain limitations, but you'll be able to do everything from your Internet browser using an intuitive web interface, even if you aren't very experienced. When you use the optional Managed Services package which we supply, we can also keep your Debian OS updated every week, saving you effort and time.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

With each of our dedicated web hosting plans, you'll be able to acquire a hosting powerhouse running Debian right away. This Operating System is among the choices that you'll get during the registration process and you will be able to choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit version, depending on what software environment your applications need. When you want to have full root access, you'll be able to acquire a server with no Control Panel, so you'll have more freedom in terms of what you can do with your machine using SSH. When you have less experience, yet you need Debian for a specific computer program, you are able to get the server with our Hepsia Control Panel. Although the root access is more limited, you're able to do anything related to your web content with ease using a user-friendly graphical interface. When you add the optional Managed Services bundle to your dedicated server package, our system administrators will handle the weekly OS updates. They will perform other important tasks on your behalf too.
