Debian is a Linux distribution, that is widely used for desktop machines, yet it has been gaining popularity as a server Operating System over the last couple of years as well. It's really dependable and safe, as fixes are released in a few days after a problem is discovered. Debian has a huge support community, so if you have any kind of questions or troubles with the OS or with any of the 30,000+ packages it is equipped with, you can easily contact the developers straight away via electronic mail using special mailing lists and receive a response within 15-20 min. The Debian community provides the best level of support possible, since all of your questions will be handled by the same people who created Debian in the first place, so they have a thorough knowledge of how their own system works. As the Operating System is 100% free to use and distribute, no license costs will be added to your web hosting fees and you can change the program code files and any other software that you install with no restrictions, in order to optimize the software environment for your Internet sites. Furthermore, Debian performs very well on any kind of hardware, because it's light and quick and does not require a lot of memory.

Debian in VPS

You can pick the Debian Operating System with each and every virtual private server plan that we supply. 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are among the options that you'll find on the order page, which means that you can pick 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 without Control Panel or with our custom-made Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you'll have more freedom, since you will have full root access and you will be able to make use of the advantages and the full functionality provided by Debian. In the second case, the root access will be restricted, but you will be able to manage your web content via a web interface, not a console. In case you don't have much time to manage your Debian-powered server, or if you don't have a lot of experience, you can add the Managed Services upgrade to your package and our admins will take care of the regular OS updates.

Debian in Dedicated Hosting

You're able to pick the Debian Operating System for your new dedicated server with a click on our registration page and according to your choice, we'll install the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of the OS on your machine, to ensure that the software that you will install later will work in the best possible way. Picking a server with no Control Panel, you will get Debian and the Apache web server software and you're able to manage everything through a console. A server that's obtained with our Hepsia Control Panel will come with all the software that you will need for your sites. Even though with the latter option the root access will be restricted, you will be able to manage the server as if it were a shared web hosting account, so that you can take advantage of a dedicated machine even if you do not have previous expertise in this kind of hosting service. When you buy the Managed Services upgrade, we'll maintain your server and will update its OS every week so as to ensure that you have the most current and most secure edition.
