Ubuntu is a widespread desktop Operating System, that uses the Linux kernel, and its server version is getting quite popular too. The reason is the fact that the operating system is very light and it'll function on almost any hardware with no issues, utilizing its resources to the fullest. Ubuntu is also really reliable and secure and all the Long-Term Support (LTS) editions are supported for at least five years, which warrants that you should have a secure and stable software environment on your hosting server all the time. Furthermore, Ubuntu has one of the largest user communities on the planet, so if you experience any issue or have any kind of question, you will find lots of resources online. Among the basic advantages of this OS is the fact that it has a large number of software packages which can be freely adjusted according to your needs and the requirements of the apps that you need to run, not to mention that you won't have to pay any license fees at all. In contrast, other Operating Systems are paid and their program code isn't accessible, therefore it can't be changed.

Ubuntu in VPS Hosting

We provide Ubuntu with all our Linux VPS hosting services and based on what requirements your web applications have, you're able to pick the 32-bit or the 64-bit edition of the OS with just a couple of mouse clicks during the registration process. If you obtain your server devoid of website hosting Control Panel, the sole software that will be set up in addition to Ubuntu is the Apache web server software, which means that you can use a console to access the website hosting server and to create a software environment that you choose. When you obtain your server with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you will have an online interface with which you'll be able to control almost everything just as easily as you control a standard shared account and all of the important MySQL, FTP and email server software will be pre-installed, however the root access to your server will be limited. If you do not have a lot of experience, or if you don't wish to waste time on VPS control procedures, you can reap the benefits of our Managed Services upgrade, which features every week Ubuntu Operating System updates.

Ubuntu in Dedicated Web Hosting

You'll be able to get Ubuntu with each of our dedicated server plans, considering that we provide 32-bit and 64-bit versions of this Operating System. This way, you are able to pick the more appropriate of them, depending on the type of apps that you wish to set up and run and on the system requirements they have about the OS. You'll have root-level access to the server, which gives you full control over the software setting. We'll install only the Apache web server software, therefore you are able to add whatever else you need, even when it's not related directly to Internet sites, such as a VOIP server, for instance. You are able to manage everything through a console, yet if you would like, you may also set up a website hosting Control Panel, provided that it's compatible with Ubuntu. In case you order the optional Managed Services bundle, we'll keep your OS up-to-date weekly and will ensure that you have the newest software packages for a stable and protected server environment.
