Debian is an Operating System that uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually installed on personal computers, it is being used on a growing number of web servers as well. The reason is that it is really stable, so a server running it will not have to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being among the most risk-free Operating Systems available, because security patches are released within days after an issue is found. This is possible since thousands of qualified developers work for the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, but they also provide 24/7 support via special mailing lists and respond within 20 minutes to any kind of question. Thus, you will receive top-notch support directly from the developers who know their own platform in depth, and not from a third-party support team. Debian is also one of the Linux distributions with the highest number of packages - more than 30,000. Since the Operating System costs nothing to use, you are able to modify both the core and any of the packages in any way you see fit. Furthermore, you will not have to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS Servers

You'll be able to pick the Debian Operating System with each and every VPS server package that we offer. 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS are some of the options that you can find on the order page, which means that you can pick the one that will be more suitable for the software that you need to set up and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be installed either without any Control Panel or with our in-house made Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you'll have more freedom, as you will have full root access and you can use the advantages and the full functionality supplied by Debian. In the second case, the root access will be limited, yet you'll be able to control your website content via a web interface, not a console. In case you do not have much time to command your Debian-powered server, or in case you do not have much experience, you're able to add the Managed Services upgrade to your plan and our admins will handle the weekly OS updates.
