Debian is a Linux distribution, which is widely used for desktop machines, yet it's been gaining popularity as a server Operating System over the last couple of years as well. It is very dependable and secure, since fixes are released in just a couple of days after an issue is discovered. Debian has a vast support community, so when you have any kind of questions or troubles with the OS or with some of the 30,000+ packages it features, you will be able to contact the developers without delay through electronic mail using special mailing lists and receive a response in just 15-20 minutes. The Debian community offers the best level of support possible, because all your questions will be handled by the very same people who built Debian in the first place, so they have an exhaustive knowledge of how their own system works. Because the Operating System is free to use and distribute, no license costs will be added to your website hosting fees and you'll be able to customize the program code files and any other software which you install with no restrictions, so as to optimize the software environment for your web sites. What's more, Debian performs really well on any hardware, because it is light and fast and doesn't require much memory.
Debian in VPS Servers
If you need a server running Debian, you can opt for any of the VPS server solutions that we offer and choose this Operating System on the order page. You will be able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release, as we give you the option to pick the right one, according to the software which you'd like to install on your server once it's up and running. When you are more tech-savvy, you may get a Debian-powered VPS with no Control Panel, and you will have full root access and you are able to control the content and the software via SSH. In case you are less experienced, but you would like to use software that requires Debian, you can pick our Hepsia website hosting Control Panel on the order page and you'll be able to manage the entire server like a standard shared web hosting account. You can also take advantage of the optional Managed Services upgrade that we supply, because it includes once a week Operating System updates performed by our admins, among many other useful things.
Debian in Dedicated Servers
Each and every dedicated server that we supply can be set up with Debian and we will test the software environment carefully before we hand over your server so as to ensure that it will perform appropriately. You can pick the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version during the signup process, so that the applications that you set up can get the maximum out of your server. We will also maintain your OS up-to-date if you add the additional Managed Services package to your plan. If you obtain your Debian-driven server without a hosting Control Panel, you will be able to do anything you want with the machine and you will have full root-level access, however you'll need to be more experienced, because all the tasks will be performed through a Secure Shell console. If you obtain your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you'll have a web interface, through which you'll be able to control domains, files, databases, etcetera, and this might be the best option when you are not very experienced, but a specific app which you wish to use requires Debian. You will have access to your Hepsia-equipped server through SSH too, yet the things that you'll be able to do will be restricted.
