Debian is an OS that uses the Linux kernel. Even though it is usually installed on desktops, it is being used on an increasing number of web servers too. The reason is that it is very stable, so a server running it will not have to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be one of the most protected Operating Systems to choose from, because security patches are released within days after a problem is found. This is possible since thousands of well-experienced developers are part of the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, but they also provide 24/7 support through special e-mail lists and reply within twenty minutes to any kind of question. In this light, you will obtain top-level 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 releases with the highest number of packages - more than 30,000. As the Operating System is absolutely free to use, you will be able to modify both the core as well as any of the packages in the way you see fit. Also, you will not need to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS Servers

You will be able to acquire a Debian-powered VPS server with all of our VPS packages and you will 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 make sure that the software environment will meet the requirements of the apps which you need to run and that the latter will run properly. Throughout the order process, you may also choose if the VPS will come with the Hepsia Control Panel or without any Control Panel at all. The first option gives you a handy graphical interface, through which you will be able to control everything related to your web presence using only a web browser - files, e-mail accounts, databases, etc. Without Control Panel at hand, you will need to make everything via a console, yet you'll have full root access and you'll 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, that includes regular Operating System updates.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

Each and every dedicated server that we provide can be installed with Debian and we will test the software environment in depth before we hand over your machine in order to make sure that it'll perform perfectly. You will be able to pick the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release during the sign-up process, so that the applications that you set up can get the maximum out of your server. We will also maintain your Operating System up-to-date when you add the additional Managed Services package to your plan. When you get your Debian-driven server without a website hosting Control Panel, you will be able to do anything you like with your machine and you will have full root-level access, yet you'll have to be more experienced, as all the tasks will be performed using a Secure Shell console. When you order your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you'll receive a web interface, through which you'll be able to manage domains, files, databases, etcetera, and this might be the best option when you are not very experienced, but a specific app that you'd like to use requires Debian. You have access to your Hepsia-equipped server via SSH too, but the things that you will be able to do are limited.
