Debian is an Operating System which uses the Linux kernel. Even though it is usually installed on personal computers, it's being used on an increasing number of web servers as well. The reason is that it is really stable, so a server running it won't have to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being among the most protected Operating Systems you can get, because security patches are released within days after a problem is found. This is possible because thousands of qualified developers are employed by the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, in addition, they provide 24/7 support via special e-mail lists and reply in twenty minutes to any kind of question. Thus, you will receive 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 several Linux releases with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. Since the Operating System is absolutely free to use, you can modify both the core as well as all of the packages in any way you see fit. In addition, you will not need to pay any kind of license fees.

Debian in VPS Servers

You will be able to get a Debian-powered VPS server with any of our VPS packages and you will be able to choose if the version that will be installed during the server setup process will be 32-bit or 64-bit. In this way, you can ensure that the software environment will meet the requirements of the apps which you want to run and that the latter will function efficiently. During the order process, you can also decide whether the VPS will come with the Hepsia Control Panel or without any Control Panel at all. The first option will provide you with an easy to navigate graphical interface, through which you can control everything related to your online presence using only an Internet browser - files, email accounts, databases, etcetera. With no Control Panel at hand, you will have to do everything through a console, but you will have full root access and you will be able to set up any kind of software that may not be compatible with Hepsia. You may also add our optional Managed Services package, which includes weekly Operating System updates.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

Each dedicated server that we offer can be set up with Debian and we'll test the software environment completely before we hand over the machine to make sure that it will perform appropriately. You can select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version throughout the signup process, so the applications that you set up will be able to get the maximum out of your server. We can also maintain your OS up-to-date if you add the additional Managed Services package to your plan. In case you acquire your Debian-driven server without a web hosting Control Panel, you will be able to do anything you like with the machine and you'll have full root-level access, however you will have to be more experienced, as all of the tasks will be performed through a Secure Shell console. When you get your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you'll receive a web interface, via which you will be able to manage domains, files, databases, etc, and this might be the best option when you are not very experienced, and a specific application that you need to use requires Debian. You will have access to your Hepsia-equipped server through SSH as well, yet the things that you will be able to do are restricted.
