Debian is an OS which uses the Linux kernel. Though it is usually installed on desktops, it's being used on more and more web servers too. The reason is that it's very stable, so a server running it won't have to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be one of the most safe Operating Systems you can get, as security patches are released within days after a problem is discovered. This is possible because 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 by using special e-mail lists and respond within twenty minutes to any kind of question. In this light, you will obtain an outstanding level of support directly from the developers who know their own platform in detail, and not from a third-party support team. Debian is also one of the Linux distributions with the highest number of packages - more than 30,000. As the Operating System is completely free to use, you will be able to modify both the core as well as all the packages in any way you see fit. Also, you will not be required to pay any kind of license fees.
Debian in Dedicated Servers
Each dedicated server that we supply can be installed with Debian and we will test the software environment thoroughly before we hand over your machine to make sure that it will perform flawlessly. You will be able to choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version during the registration process, so the apps which you set up will be able to get the maximum out of your server. We can also maintain your OS up-to-date when you add the additional Managed Services package to your plan. When you order your Debian-driven server without a hosting Control Panel, you'll be able to do anything you want with your machine and you'll have full root-level access, however you'll need to be more experienced, since all of the tasks will be performed through a Secure Shell console. When you order your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you'll get a web interface, through which you will be able to control domains, files, databases, etc, and this might be a better option in case you are not very experienced, and a certain application which you intend to use requires Debian. You can access your Hepsia-equipped server via SSH too, yet the things that you are able to do are restricted.
