Debian is an OS which uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually installed on desktop machines, it's being used on more and more web servers as well. The reason is that it's very stable, so a server running it won't need to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being among the most secure Operating Systems to be found, because security patches are released within days after a problem is discovered. This is possible since thousands of well-trained 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 mailing lists and reply in 20 min to any kind of question. Thus, you'll enjoy 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 the Linux distributions with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. As the Operating System is free to use, you will be able to modify both the core and any of the packages in the way you see fit. Also, you will not have to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS

You are able to pick the Debian Operating System with each virtual private server package that we offer. 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS are among the options that you can find on the order page, so you can pick the one that is more suitable for the software that you need to install and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be set up either without any Control Panel or with our in-house 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 make use of the advantages and the full functionality supplied by Debian. In the second case, the root access will be limited, yet you're able to manage your web content through a web interface, not a console. In case you don't have much time to control your Debian-powered server, or if you do not have much experience, you are able to add the Managed Services upgrade to your plan and our admins will handle the weekly OS updates.

Debian in Dedicated Hosting

Each dedicated server that we supply can be installed with Debian and we will test the software environment thoroughly before we hand over your server so as to make sure that it will perform flawlessly. You will be able to choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version during the registration process, so that the apps which you install can get the maximum out of your server. We can also maintain your OS up-to-date when you add the optional Managed Services package to your plan. If you get your Debian-driven server without a website hosting Control Panel, you can do anything you want with your machine and you will have full root-level access, but you'll have to be more skillful, as all the tasks will be performed using a Secure Shell console. When you obtain your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you'll have a web interface, via which you can control domains, files, databases, etcetera, and this might be a better option when you are not very experienced, and a certain application that you intend to use requires Debian. You will have access to your Hepsia-equipped server via SSH as well, yet the things which you are able to do are limited.
