Debian is an OS which uses the Linux kernel. Though it is usually installed on desktop computers, it is being used on an increasing 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 protected Operating Systems you can get, since security patches are released within days after an issue is discovered. This is possible because thousands of skilled 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 by using special e-mail lists and reply within twenty minutes to any kind of question. In this light, you'll obtain 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 the Linux distributions with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. Since the Operating System is absolutely free to use, you're able to modify both the core as well as all the packages in any way you see fit. In addition, you will not be required to pay any kind of license fees.

Debian in VPS Servers

When you need a server running Debian, you can opt for any of the VPS server plans that we offer and select this Operating System on the registration page. You will be able to pick the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version, as we give you the option to choose the more appropriate one, according to the software which you'd like to install on your server once it's up and running. When you're more tech-savvy, you can get a Debian-powered VPS without a Control Panel, so that you will have full root access and you'll be able to control the content and the software via SSH. If you are less experienced, but you would like to use an app that requires Debian, you are able to select the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel on the order page and you'll be able to manage the whole server like a standard shared hosting account. You can also take advantage of the optional Managed Services upgrade that we supply, as it includes weekly Operating System updates performed by our administrators, among various other useful things.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

Each and every dedicated server that we supply can be set up with Debian and we'll test the software environment in depth before we hand over your machine so as to make sure that it will perform properly. You're able to choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version during the signup process, so the applications that you set up will be able to get the maximum out of your server. We can also keep your OS up-to-date if you add the optional Managed Services package to your plan. In case you acquire your Debian-driven server without a hosting Control Panel, you'll be able to do anything you want with the machine and you will have full root-level access, however you will need to be more skillful, because all of the tasks will be performed using a Secure Shell console. If you order your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you'll receive a web interface, through which you'll be able to control domains, files, databases, and many others, and this might be the best option in case you aren't very experienced, and a particular app that you would like to use requires Debian. You have access to your Hepsia-equipped server through SSH as well, but the things that you'll be able to do are limited.
