Ubuntu is a preferred desktop OS, that uses the Linux kernel, but its server release is getting quite popular as well. The main reason is the fact that the OS is really light and it'll function on almost any hardware without issues, utilizing its resources to the max. Ubuntu is also really reliable and secure and all of the Long-Term Support (LTS) releases are supported for a minimum of five years, which guarantees that you should have a risk-free and dependable software environment on your website hosting server all the time. In addition, Ubuntu has one of the biggest user communities on earth, so if you experience any difficulty or have any kind of question, you will discover numerous resources on the net. Among the key benefits of this OS is the fact that it features a great number of software packages which can be easily customized in accordance with your needs and the needs of the applications which you intend to run, not to mention that you will not have to pay any license fees at any time. In comparison, other Operating Systems are paid and their program code isn't accessible, which means that it can't be changed.

Ubuntu in VPS Servers

Ubuntu is available with our VPS servers and you can get a VPS running it in just 60 minutes. 32-bit and 64-bit editions of the OS are available, so that you can select the one which you need if the software that you want to run on the web hosting server has specific system requirements in this regard. You can also select whether your Ubuntu-powered VPS should be installed with no Control Panel, in which case you'll have full root access and you'll be able to install anything through a console; or if the Hepsia Control Panel should be installed on it, in which case you will have a world wide web interface and all needed web server, MySQL, FTP, electronic mail server, etc. software is pre-installed. The root access in the second case will be more limited, but this type of installation is more effective for users with less experience. We can also keep your Ubuntu up-to-date on a regular basis when you add our Managed Services upgrade. You will be able to do so during the VPS order process or at any later time via your billing Control Panel.
