Debian is an Operating System that uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually set up on personal computers, it is being used on a growing number of web servers too. The reason is that it is very stable, so a server running it will not have to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be among the most protected Operating Systems to choose from, due to the fact that security patches are released within days after a problem is discovered. This is possible because 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 by using special mailing lists and respond in 20 min to any kind of question. In this light, you will have an outstanding level of 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. As the Operating System is absolutely free to use, you can modify both the core and all of the packages in any way you see fit. Furthermore, you will not need to pay any license fees.
Debian in VPS Web Hosting
When you need a server running Debian, you can opt for any of the virtual private server solutions that we offer and pick this Operating System on the registration page. You will be able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release, as we give you the option to pick the more appropriate one, according to the software that you want to install on your server once it's set up. If you are more tech-savvy, you can get a Debian-powered VPS with no Control Panel, so that you will have full root access and you will be able to control the content and the software using SSH. In case you are less experienced, but you'd like to use an app which requires Debian, you're able to pick our Hepsia web hosting Control Panel on the order page and you can manage the whole server like a standard shared web hosting account. In addition, you can reap the benefits of the optional Managed Services upgrade that we supply, since it includes regular Operating System updates done by our administrators, among various other useful things.
Debian in Dedicated Servers Hosting
32-bit and 64-bit editions of Debian are available on our dedicated server order page and you are able to pick any of them with just a click for your new machine, based on what software environment the applications which you would like to use require for optimal performance. You can also select whether our Hepsia Control Panel should be set up on the server or if it should come with no Control Panel at all. The first option is suitable for inexperienced users who want a Debian-powered server, yet wish to control it like a shared hosting account, whereas the second option is suitable for more experienced 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 can also save your time and effort with the Managed Services upgrade, because it features regular Operating System updates, to ensure that you will have a safe and stable Debian installation.
