Debian is an OS that uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually set up on personal computers, it's being used on an increasing number of web servers too. The reason is that it's really stable, so a server running it won't have to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be among the most risk-free Operating Systems out there, as security patches are released within days after an issue is found. This is possible because thousands of skilled developers are working 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 via special e-mail lists and respond within 20 min to any kind of question. In this light, you'll have top-notch support directly from the developers who know their own platform in detail, and not from a third-party support team. Debian is also among the Linux distributions with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. As the Operating System is free to use, you are able to modify both the core and all the packages in the way you see fit. Also, you will not need to pay any kind of license fees.

Debian in VPS

You'll be able to acquire a Debian-powered virtual private server with all of our VPS plans and you'll be able to choose if the version that will be installed throughout the server setup process will be 32-bit or 64-bit. Thus, you can ensure that the software environment will meet the requirements of the applications that you need to run and that the latter will work properly. During the order process, you can also choose if the VPS will come with the Hepsia Control Panel or with no Control Panel at all. The first option gives you an intuitive graphical interface, through that you will be able to control everything related to your online presence using only an Internet browser - files, e-mail addresses, databases, etc. Without Control Panel at hand, you will have to do everything through a console, but you will have full root access and you'll be able to set up any software that may not be supported by Hepsia. You can also add our optional Managed Services package, that includes regular Operating System updates.

Debian in Dedicated Hosting

Each and every dedicated server that we provide can be installed with Debian and we'll test the software environment in detail before we hand over your server in order to ensure that it'll perform appropriately. You're able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release during the registration process, so that the apps that you set up can 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. If you get your Debian-driven server without a web hosting Control Panel, you can do anything you want with your machine and you will have full root-level access, however you will have to be more experienced, as all the tasks will be performed using a Secure Shell console. When you acquire your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you'll get a web interface, via which you will be able to manage domains, files, databases, etcetera, and this might be a better option in case you are not very experienced, but a specific application that you'd like to use requires Debian. You will have access to your Hepsia-equipped server via SSH too, yet the things which you are able to do will be restricted.
