Debian is a well-known Linux release, that's used mainly on desktop machines, but numerous people have started using it lately as a web server Operating System too, because of the stability and security it offers. The latter is a consequence of the fact that Debian is developed and supported by a large number of qualified volunteers internationally, therefore any patch that's required to fix some issue is released within a matter of days. The same community will also help you with any question or problem that a user may ever encounter, as they can be contacted through email using mailing lists and a qualified response will be sent in no more than 15-20 minutes. The advantage here is that all your questions will be addressed by the same people who have made the Operating System itself and they have an in-depth knowledge of how it functions. As Debian is provided for free, you won't need to pay any license fees to use it and you'll be able to customize it as much as you want or need. This is valid for both the Operating System and the 30.000+ software packages that are available for it.
Debian in VPS Servers
You will be able to select the Debian Operating System with each and every VPS server solution that we provide. 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS are some of the options that you will find on the order page, which means that you can pick the one that is more suitable for the software that you would like to install and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be installed either devoid of Control Panel or with our custom-built Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you'll have more freedom, considering that you will have full root access and you'll be able to make use of the advantages and the full functionality offered by Debian. In the second case, the root access will be restricted, however you are able to control your web content via a web interface, not a console. If you don't have a lot of time to control your Debian-powered server, or if you do not have substantial experience, you are able to add the Managed Services upgrade to your plan and our admins will take care of the weekly OS updates.
Debian in Dedicated Servers
32-bit and 64-bit versions of Debian are available on our dedicated server order page and you're able to select any of them with just a single click for your brand new server, depending on what software environment the apps that you would like to use require for the best performance. You may also choose if our Hepsia Control Panel should be installed on the server or whether it should come without any Control Panel at all. The first option is suitable for less experienced users who need a Debian-powered server, yet would like to control it like a shared hosting account, while the second option is good for more advanced users who would like to have more control, because ‘no Control Panel' means only Debian and the Apache web server software, and no other software installed on the server whatsoever. We'll also save your time and effort with the Managed Services upgrade, since it comes with routine Operating System updates, to ensure that you'll have a safe and stable Debian installation.
