Debian is a well-known Linux release, that's used mainly on desktop machines, but lots of people have started using it lately as a web server OS too, due to the stability and security it offers. The latter is a result of the fact that Debian is developed and supported by thousands of qualified volunteers internationally, so any patch that's needed to fix some issue is released in a few days. The very same community can also help with any question or problem that a user may ever have, as they can be contacted through e-mail using e-mail lists and a competent response will be sent in around 15-20 min. The advantage here is that all your questions will be answered by the same people who have created the Operating System itself and they have a detailed knowledge of how it functions. As Debian is 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 the Operating System and the 30.000+ software packages that are available for it.
Debian in VPS Servers
There are several Operating Systems that we provide with our Linux VPS web hosting service and Debian is one of them, therefore when you'd like to have a server with this OS, you'll be able to acquire one in less than 1 hour. In addition, we offer 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS to ensure that the VPS you will get will completely cover the system requirements of any web or offline application which you wish to install on the server. Managing the content on the server can be done in two ways, according to the choice you make on the order page. Without a Control Panel, you will be able to do everything on your Debian-equipped server through Secure Shell, as you'll have root-level access, whereas through the Hepsia Control Panel, the root access will have some limitations, but you can do everything through your browser using a handy web interface, even if you aren't very experienced. Using the optional Managed Services package that we supply, we will also keep your Debian OS updated weekly, saving you effort and time.
Debian in Dedicated Servers
You'll be able to select the Debian OS for your new dedicated server with just a mouse click on our order page and according to your choice, we'll install the 32-bit or the 64-bit version of the OS on the machine, to ensure that the software that you'll install later will work in the optimal way. Picking a server devoid of Control Panel, you will receive Debian and the Apache web server software and you will be able to manage everything through a console. A server which is ordered with our Hepsia Control Panel will feature all of the software that you may need for your Internet sites. Even though with the latter option the root access is limited, you'll be able to control the server as if it were a shared website hosting account, so you can take advantage of a dedicated machine even if you do not have previous experience with this kind of web hosting service. When you buy our Managed Services upgrade, we will take care of your server and will update its OS on a weekly basis in order to make sure that you have the latest and most safe version.
