Debian is an Operating System which uses the Linux kernel. Even though it is usually installed on desktops, it's being used on an increasing number of web servers too. The reason is that it's really stable, so a server running it will not need to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being among the most risk-free Operating Systems to choose from, because security patches are released within days after a problem is found. This is possible since thousands of qualified developers are working 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 reply in 20 min to any kind of question. In this light, you will have 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 - more than 30,000. As the Operating System is completely free to use, you will be able to modify both the core and all of the packages in the way you see fit. Furthermore, you will not need to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS Hosting

You will be able to get a Debian-powered virtual private server with all of our VPS plans and you'll be able to choose if the version that will be installed throughout the server setup process should be 32-bit or 64-bit. This way, you can make sure that the software environment will meet the system requirements of the apps that you need to run and that the latter will work correctly. During the order process, you can also choose if the VPS will come with the Hepsia Control Panel or without Control Panel at all. The first option will provide you with an intuitive graphical interface, via which you'll be able to control everything related to your online presence using only an Internet browser - files, email accounts, databases, etcetera. Without Control Panel at hand, you will have to do everything through a console, however you will have full root access and you can set up any kind of software that may not be compatible with Hepsia. You can also add the optional Managed Services package, which includes weekly Operating System updates.

Debian in Dedicated Web Hosting

32-bit and 64-bit editions of Debian are available on our dedicated server order page and you're able to select all of them with only a mouse click for your brand new server, based on what software environment the applications which you wish to use require for top notch performance. You may also select whether our Hepsia Control Panel should be installed on the server or if it should come with no Control Panel at all. The first option is made for inexperienced users who want a Debian-powered server, yet would like to manage it like a shared website hosting account, whereas the second option is suitable for more experienced users who want to have more control, since ‘no Control Panel' means only Debian and the Apache web server software, and no other software installed on the server at all. We can also save you time and effort with the Managed Services upgrade, because it features routine Operating System updates, to ensure that you will have a secure and stable Debian installation.
