Debian is an Operating System which uses the Linux kernel. Even though it is usually set up on personal computers, it is being used on an increasing number of web servers too. The reason is that it is really stable, so a server running it will not need to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be among the most risk-free Operating Systems in existence, because security patches are released within days after a problem is discovered. This is possible since thousands of skilled developers work for the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, in addition, they provide 24/7 support through special e-mail lists and respond in 20 minutes to any question. Thus, you will have 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 among the Linux releases with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. Since the Operating System costs nothing to use, you'll be able to modify both the core as well as all the packages in any way you see fit. Furthermore, you won't have to pay any kind of license fees.

Debian in VPS

There're a few Operating Systems that we offer with our VPS services and Debian is among them, therefore if you need a server with this Operating System, you will be able to get one in less than an hour. In addition, we offer 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS to ensure that the VPS you'll have will completely cover the system requirements of any kind of web or offline app which you need to install on the server. Controlling the content on the server can be performed in two ways, depending on the choice you make on the order page. Without a Control Panel, you can do everything on your Debian-equipped server using Secure Shell, as you'll have root-level access, whereas using the Hepsia Control Panel, the root access will have certain restrictions, but you will be able to do everything through your web browser using a user-friendly web interface, even when you are not very experienced. When you use the optional Managed Services package which we offer, we will also keep your Debian OS updated weekly, saving you effort and time.

Debian in Dedicated Hosting

You are able to pick the Debian Operating System for your new dedicated server with just a click on our order page and based on your choice, we'll set up the 32-bit or the 64-bit edition of the OS on your machine, so that the software that you'll install later will work in the best possible way. Using a server without Control Panel, you'll get Debian and the Apache web server software and you'll be able to control everything using a console. A server which is ordered with our Hepsia Control Panel will feature all the software that you'll need for your Internet sites. Though with the latter option the root access will be restricted, you'll be able to manage the server as if it were a shared website hosting account, therefore you can take advantage of a dedicated machine even if you have no previous experience with this kind of web hosting service. If you purchase the Managed Services upgrade, we will take care of your server and will update its OS weekly to ensure that you have the most recent and most secure release.
