Debian is an Operating System that uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually installed on desktops, it's being used on more and more web servers too. The reason is that it is very stable, so a server running it won't need to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being one of the most protected Operating Systems you can get, as security patches are released within days after an issue is discovered. This is possible because thousands of experienced developers are working for 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 e-mail lists and respond in 20 minutes to any 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 the Linux distributions with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. Since the Operating System is free to use, you are able to modify both the core as well as all the packages in the way you see fit. In addition, you won't be required to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS Servers

You are able to pick the Debian Operating System with each and every VPS server plan that we provide. 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS are among the options that you'll find on the order page, which means that you can select the one that will be more suitable for the software that you'd like to install and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be installed either with no Control Panel or with our custom-made Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you will have more freedom, since you will have full root access and you're able to take advantage of the advantages and the full functionality supplied by Debian. In the second case, the root access will be limited, but you are able to manage your online content through a web interface, not a console. In case you don't have much time to maintain your Debian-powered server, or if you do not have much experience, you could add the Managed Services upgrade to your plan and our administrators will handle the regular OS updates.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

With our Linux dedicated service, you can acquire a website hosting powerhouse running Debian without delay. This Operating System is among the options that you will get during the registration process and you can select the 32-bit or the 64-bit version, depending on what software environment your applications need. When you need to have full root access, you can obtain a server without a Control Panel, so you will have more freedom with regard to what you can do with your machine using SSH. When you have less experience, but you need Debian for a specific piece of software, you will be able to obtain the server with our Hepsia Control Panel. Despite the fact that the root access is more limited, you will be able to do anything related to your web content without difficulty employing an easy to use graphical interface. When you add the optional Managed Services bundle to your dedicated server package, our system administrators will deal with the weekly OS enhancements. They will perform other important tasks on your behalf too.
