Debian is a Linux distribution, which is widely used for desktop computers, yet it's been gaining in popularity as a server Operating System over the last few years as well. It is very dependable and safe, because fixes are released in a couple of days after an issue is discovered. Debian has a vast support community, so if you have any questions or troubles with the OS or with some of the 30,000+ packages it comes with, you will be able to contact the developers straight away via e-mail using special mailing lists and receive a response in 15-20 minutes. The Debian community supplies the best level of support possible, because all of your questions will be handled by the very same people that created Debian in the first place, so they have a detailed knowledge of how their own system works. Since the Operating System is absolutely free to use and distribute, no license charges will be added to your web hosting fees and you will be able to customize the program code files and any additional software that you install without restrictions, in order to optimize the software environment for your web sites. What's more, Debian performs very well on any hardware, as it's light and fast and does not need a lot of memory.

Debian in VPS Servers

You will be able to pick the Debian Operating System with each and every VPS server plan that we supply. 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are among the options that you can find on the order page, so you can select the one that will be more suitable for the software that you need to install and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be installed either without any Control Panel or with our custom Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you will have more freedom, as you will have full root access and you'll be able to make use of the advantages and the full functionality supplied by Debian. In the second case, the root access is limited, however you'll be able to manage your web content via a web interface, not a console. If you don't have a lot of time to manage your Debian-powered server, or in case you don't have a lot of experience, you're able to add the Managed Services upgrade to your package and our admins will handle the regular OS updates.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

32-bit and 64-bit versions of Debian are available on our dedicated server order page and you can choose all of them with just a click for your new server, depending on what software environment the apps which you wish to use require for top notch performance. You can also select whether our Hepsia Control Panel should be installed on the server or if it should come with no Control Panel at all. The first option is suitable for inexperienced users who need a Debian-powered server, yet would like to control it like a shared web hosting account, while the second option is good for more experienced users who need to have more control, since ‘no Control Panel' stands for only Debian and the Apache web server software, and no other software set up on the server whatsoever. We can also save your time and effort with our Managed Services upgrade, as it includes routine Operating System updates, so that you'll have a safe and stable Debian installation.
