Debian is an Operating System which uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually installed on personal computers, it's being used on an increasing number of web servers too. The reason is that it's very stable, so a server running it will not have to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be among the most safe Operating Systems nowadays, since security patches are released within days after an issue is found. This is possible because thousands of well-experienced developers are working for the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, they also provide 24/7 support by using special mailing lists and respond in twenty minutes to any question. In this light, you will get an outstanding level of 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 distributions with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. Since the Operating System is absolutely free to use, you'll be able to modify both the core as well as all of the packages in any way you see fit. Furthermore, you won't be required to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS Servers

You are able to get a Debian-powered VPS server with all of our VPS packages and you'll be able to choose if the version which will be installed throughout the server setup process will be 32-bit or 64-bit. In this way, you'll guarantee that the software environment will match the system requirements of the applications which you wish to run and that the latter will function properly. Throughout the order process, you may also select whether the VPS will come with the Hepsia Control Panel or without a Control Panel at all. The first option provides you with an easy to navigate graphical interface, via which you can control everything related to your online presence using only a web browser - files, emails, databases, and the like. With no Control Panel at hand, you will need to do everything through a console, but you'll have full root access and you'll be able to install any software that may not be supported by Hepsia. You can also add the optional Managed Services package, which includes weekly Operating System updates.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

You'll be able to pick the Debian OS for your new dedicated server with only a single click on our registration page and according to your choice, we'll set up the 32-bit or the 64-bit version of the OS on the machine, so that the software that you will install later will perform in the optimal way. Picking a server devoid of Control Panel, you will get Debian and the Apache web server software and you'll be able to manage everything through a console. A server which is acquired with the Hepsia Control Panel will feature all the software which you may need for your websites. Although with the latter option the root access is limited, you can manage the server as if it were a shared hosting account, thus you can take advantage of a dedicated machine even if you don't have previous experience with this type of hosting service. If you purchase our Managed Services upgrade, we'll maintain your server and will update its OS weekly in order to ensure that you have the most current and most safe version.
