Debian is an OS which uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually installed on desktop machines, it's being used on a growing number of web servers too. The reason is that it's very stable, so a server running it won't have to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be among the most safe Operating Systems available, due to the fact that security patches are released within days after a problem is discovered. This is possible because thousands of well-trained 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. In this light, you will obtain 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 releases with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. As the Operating System is free to use, you are able to modify both the core as well as all of the packages in the way you see fit. Furthermore, you won't have to pay any kind of license fees.

Debian in VPS Servers

You will be able to select the Debian Operating System with each VPS server package that we supply. 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are some of the options that you can find on the order page, so you can pick the one that will be more suitable for the software that you would like to set up and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be installed either without any Control Panel or with our custom-made Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you'll have more freedom, due to the fact that you will have full root access and you're able to take advantage of the advantages and the full functionality supplied by Debian. In the second case, the root access is limited, but you can control your online content via a web interface, not a console. In case you do not have a lot of time to take care of your Debian-powered server, or in case you do not have much experience, you could add the Managed Services upgrade to your plan and our admins will take care of the weekly OS updates.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

32-bit and 64-bit versions of Debian are available on our dedicated server order page and you can select all of them with just a click for your brand new server, depending on what software environment the applications which you would like to use require for optimal performance. You may also choose if our Hepsia Control Panel should be installed on the server or if it should come without a Control Panel at all. The first option is made for inexperienced users who want a Debian-powered server, but would like to manage it like a shared web hosting account, while the second option is good for more experienced users who need to have more control, due to the fact that ‘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 our Managed Services upgrade, as it comes with routine Operating System updates, so that you'll have a secure and stable Debian installation.
