Debian is an OS which uses the Linux kernel. Even though it is usually set up on desktop computers, it's being used on a growing number of web servers as well. The reason is that it's really stable, so a server running it won't have to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being one of the most safe Operating Systems nowadays, since 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, they also provide 24/7 support via special e-mail lists and reply in 20 minutes to any kind of question. Thus, you will 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 one of several Linux distributions with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. As the Operating System is absolutely free to use, you're able to modify both the core and all of the packages in the way you see fit. In addition, you won't have to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS

You'll be able to choose the Debian Operating System with each virtual private server package that we offer. 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 select the one that will be more suitable for the software that you would like to install and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be set up either devoid of Control Panel or with our custom-built Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you'll have more freedom, considering that you will have full root access and you'll be able to use the advantages and the full functionality supplied by Debian. In the second case, the root access will be restricted, however you are able to control your online content through a web interface, not a console. If you don't have a lot of time to control your Debian-powered server, or in case you don't have a lot of experience, you are able to add the Managed Services upgrade to your plan and our administrators will take care of the regular OS updates.

Debian in Dedicated Hosting

32-bit and 64-bit releases of Debian are available on our dedicated server order page and you'll be able to select all of them with just a click for your new server, depending on what software environment the apps that you would like to use require for the best performance. You can also select whether our Hepsia Control Panel should be installed on the server or whether it should come without any Control Panel at all. The first option is suitable for less experienced users who need a Debian-powered server, yet want to control it like a shared website hosting account, while the second option is suitable for more experienced users who would like to have more control, due to the fact that ‘no Control Panel' stands for only Debian and the Apache web server software, but no other software installed on the server whatsoever. We'll also save your time and effort with our Managed Services upgrade, because it includes regular Operating System updates, to ensure that you will have a secure and stable Debian installation.
