Debian is an Operating System which uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually installed on desktop computers, it's being used on an increasing number of web servers too. The reason is that it's very stable, so a server running it will not need to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be one of the most risk-free Operating Systems to be found, 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, in addition, they provide 24/7 support by using special mailing lists and reply in 20 min to any question. In this light, 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 several Linux releases with the highest number of packages - more than 30,000. Since the Operating System is completely free to use, you can modify both the core as well as all of the packages in any way you see fit. In addition, you will not need to pay any kind of license fees.

Debian in VPS Hosting

When you need a server running Debian, you can opt for any of the virtual private server packages that we provide and choose this Operating System on the order page. You can choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release, as we give you the option to select the right one, according to the software that you wish to install on your server once it's set up. In case you are more tech-savvy, you may get a Debian-powered VPS without a Control Panel, and you will have full root access and you'll be able to control the content and the software using SSH. In case you are less experienced, yet you would like to use an application which requires Debian, you will be able to pick the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel on the order page and you will be able to manage the entire server like a standard shared web hosting account. You may also take advantage of the optional Managed Services upgrade that we provide, since it includes once a week Operating System updates performed by our admins, among many other useful things.

Debian in Dedicated Web Hosting

You're able to pick the Debian Operating System for your new dedicated server with just a click on our order page and depending on your choice, we will install the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of the OS on the machine, to ensure that the software that you will install later will work in the optimal way. Picking a server devoid of Control Panel, you will receive Debian and the Apache web server software and you're able to control everything through a console. A server which is ordered with our Hepsia Control Panel will feature all of the software that you'll need for your sites. Although with the latter option the root access is limited, you are able to manage the server as if it were a shared website hosting account, so that you can take advantage of a dedicated machine even if you don't have previous experience with this kind of web hosting service. If you buy the Managed Services upgrade, we'll maintain your server and will update its OS on a weekly basis so as to make sure that you have the most current and most secure edition.
