Debian is a widespread Linux distribution, which is used primarily on desktop machines, however numerous people have begun using it lately as a web server OS as well, due to the stability and protection it supplies. The latter is a direct result the fact that Debian is developed and supported by a large number of qualified volunteers worldwide, which means that any patch that is necessary to fix a particular issue is released within a few days. The same community will also help with any question or issue which a user may ever have, as they can be contacted through electronic mail using mailing lists and a qualified response will be sent in no more than 15-20 min. The advantage here is that all of your queries will be addressed by the same people who have created the Operating System itself and they have a detailed knowledge of how it works. As Debian is provided for free, you won't need to pay any kind of license fees to use it and you can customize it as much as you want or need. This is valid for the Operating System and the 30.000+ software packages that are available for it.
Debian in VPS Servers
You'll be able to pick the Debian Operating System with each VPS server package that we supply. 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 select the one that is more suitable for the software that you need to install and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be set up either with no Control Panel or with our in-house made Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you'll have more freedom, due to the fact that you will have full root access and you'll be able to use the advantages and the full functionality provided by Debian. In the second case, the root access will be restricted, however you're able to control your online content through a web interface, not a console. If you don't have much time to manage your Debian-powered server, or in case you do not have much experience, you are able to add the Managed Services upgrade to your package and our admins will handle the regular OS updates.
Debian in Dedicated Servers
32-bit and 64-bit releases of Debian are available on our dedicated server order page and you can pick all of them with only a click for your brand new machine, depending on what software environment the apps which you want to use require for the best performance. You can also select if our Hepsia Control Panel should be installed on the server or whether it should come without a Control Panel at all. The first option is suitable for inexperienced users who want a Debian-powered server, yet wish to manage it like a shared web hosting account, while the second option is good for more advanced users who need to have more control, due to the fact that ‘no Control Panel' means only Debian and the Apache web server software, and no other software installed on the server whatsoever. We'll also save your time and effort with our Managed Services upgrade, since it comes with regular Operating System updates, to ensure that you will have a safe and stable Debian installation.
