Debian is an Operating System which uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually installed on personal computers, it is being used on an increasing number of web servers as well. The reason is that it is really stable, so a server running it will not need to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be among the most protected Operating Systems nowadays, due to the fact that 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 mailing lists and respond in twenty minutes to any question. Thus, you will get top-notch support directly from the developers who know their own platform in detail, and not from a third-party support team. Debian is also among the Linux releases with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. Since the Operating System is completely free to use, you're able to modify both the core and any of the packages in any way you see fit. Also, you won't need to pay any kind of license fees.

Debian in VPS

You'll be able to choose the Debian Operating System with each and every virtual private server solution that we supply. 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are some of the options that you'll find on the order page, so you can select the one that will be more suitable for the software that you need to set up and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be set up either without Control Panel or with our custom-built Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you have more freedom, considering that you will have full root access and you will be able to use 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 online content via a web interface, not a console. If you do not have a lot of time to command your Debian-powered server, or if you don't have substantial experience, you could add the Managed Services upgrade to your package and our admins will take care of the regular OS updates.

Debian in Dedicated Hosting

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