Debian is a Linux release, which is preffered for desktop machines, but it's been gaining in popularity as a server Operating System over the last couple of years as well. It is really dependable and protected, as fixes are released within a few days after an issue is discovered. Debian has a huge support community, so when you have any kind of questions or issues with the OS or with some of the 30,000+ packages it comes with, you will be able to contact the developers straight away through e-mail using special mailing lists and receive a response within 15-20 min. The Debian community supplies the top level of support possible, since all your questions will be handled by the same people who built Debian in the first place, so they have an exhaustive knowledge of how their system works. Because the Operating System is free to use and distribute, no license charges will be added to your web hosting fees and you will be able to change the code files and any other software that you install with no restrictions, in order to optimize the software environment for your sites. What's more, Debian performs really well on any kind of hardware, because it's light and fast and does not require a lot of memory.

Debian in VPS Servers

You will be able to choose the Debian Operating System with each and every VPS server plan that we offer. 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are some of the options that you will find on the order page, which means that you can pick the one that is more suitable for the software that you would like to set up and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be installed either with no Control Panel or with our tailor-made Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you'll have more freedom, since you will have full root access and you're able to take advantage of the advantages and the full functionality supplied by Debian. In the second case, the root access is restricted, however you'll be able to manage your online content through a web interface, not a console. If you do not have much time to command your Debian-powered server, or if you do not have substantial experience, you can add the Managed Services upgrade to your plan and our administrators will take care of the weekly OS updates.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

32-bit and 64-bit editions of Debian are available on our dedicated server order page and you can choose any of them with only a single click for your new machine, based on what software environment the apps that you would like to use require for the best performance. You can also select whether our Hepsia Control Panel should be set up 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 wish to control it like a shared web hosting account, whereas the second option is suitable for more experienced users who want to have more control, due to the fact that ‘no Control Panel' means only Debian and the Apache web server software, but no other software set up on the server at all. We can also save you time and effort with our Managed Services upgrade, because it features regular Operating System updates, to ensure that you'll have a secure and stable Debian installation.
