Debian is an OS which uses the Linux kernel. Though it is usually set up on desktops, it is being used on a growing number of web servers as well. The reason is that it's very stable, so a server running it will not need to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being among the most safe Operating Systems to be found, because security patches are released within days after an issue is found. This is possible since thousands of well-experienced developers are part of the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, they also provide 24/7 support through special e-mail lists and respond within 20 minutes to any kind of question. In this light, you will get top-level 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 several Linux releases with the highest number of packages - more than 30,000. Since the Operating System costs nothing to use, you will be able to modify both the core and all the packages in the way you see fit. In addition, you will not need to pay any kind of license fees.

Debian in VPS Web Hosting

When you need a server running Debian, you can opt for any of the virtual private server plans that we supply and select this Operating System on the registration page. You can select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release, as we give you the option to select the right one, depending on the software that you want to install on your server once it is up and running. If you are more tech-savvy, you may get a Debian-powered VPS without a Control Panel, so you'll have full root access and you're able to manage the content and the software via SSH. In case you are less experienced, but you'd like to use an application that requires Debian, you can choose the Hepsia hosting Control Panel on the order page and you'll be able to manage the entire server like a standard shared web hosting account. In addition, you can take full advantage of the optional Managed Services upgrade that we provide, since it features regular Operating System updates performed by our administrators, among various other useful things.

Debian in Dedicated Servers Hosting

You are able to select the Debian Operating System for your new dedicated server with a click on our registration page and depending on your choice, we will install the 32-bit or the 64-bit version of the OS on the machine, so that the software that you'll install later will work in the best possible way. With a server with no Control Panel, you will receive Debian and the Apache web server software and you will be able to control everything through a console. A server that is obtained with the Hepsia Control Panel will feature all of the software that you'll need for your Internet sites. Although with the latter option the root access is limited, you can control the server as if it were a shared web hosting account, thus you can take advantage of a dedicated machine even if you don't have previous experience with this type of hosting service. When you order our Managed Services upgrade, we will take care of your server and will update its OS weekly to ensure that you have the latest and most safe release.
