Debian is an Operating System that uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually installed on personal 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 will not need to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be one of the most risk-free Operating Systems out there, as security patches are released within days after a problem 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, but they also provide 24/7 support through special mailing lists and respond in 20 min to any kind of question. Thus, you will have 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 absolutely free to use, you will be able to modify both the core and all the packages in the way you see fit. In addition, you will not be required to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS Hosting

There are several Operating Systems that we provide with our Linux VPS hosting services and Debian is among them, therefore when you need a server with this OS, you can get one in less than one hour. In addition, we offer 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS to ensure that the VPS you'll get will completely cover the system requirements of any web or offline app that you intend to install on the server. Managing the content on the server can be performed in two ways, depending on the choice you make on the order page. Without a Control Panel, you can do everything on your Debian-equipped server through Secure Shell, as you will have root-level access, whereas through the Hepsia Control Panel, the root access will have some restrictions, but you can do everything through your Internet browser using an intuitive web interface, even if you are not very experienced. When you use the optional Managed Services package which we supply, we'll also keep your Debian OS up to date weekly, saving you effort and time.

Debian in Dedicated Web Hosting

32-bit and 64-bit versions of Debian are available on our dedicated server order page and you're able to pick all of them with just a single click for your new server, based on what software environment the applications that you wish to use require for the best performance. You can also select if our Hepsia Control Panel should be set up on the server or whether it should come without a Control Panel at all. The first option is made for inexperienced users who need a Debian-powered server, but would like to control it like a shared web hosting account, while the second option is suitable for more advanced users who want to have more control, as ‘no Control Panel' means only Debian and the Apache web server software, but no other software set up on the server at all. We will also save you time and effort with our Managed Services upgrade, since it comes with routine Operating System updates, to ensure that you'll have a secure and stable Debian installation.
