Debian is an OS that uses the Linux kernel. Though it is usually set up on desktops, it is being used on more and more web servers too. The reason is that it is very stable, so a server running it won't have to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being one of the most risk-free Operating Systems to be found, since security patches are released within days after an issue is found. This is possible since thousands of skilled 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 by using special e-mail lists and reply within 20 minutes to any kind of question. Thus, you'll get 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 one of several Linux releases with the highest number of packages - more than 30,000. As the Operating System is free to use, you will be able to modify both the core as well as all of the packages in the way you see fit. Furthermore, you won't need to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS Servers

You are able to obtain a Debian-powered VPS server with any of our VPS packages and you'll be able to choose if the version that will be installed throughout the server setup process should be 32-bit or 64-bit. Thus, you can ensure that the software environment will meet the system requirements of the applications that you want to run and that the latter will run properly. During the order process, you may also decide whether the VPS will come with our Hepsia Control Panel or without any Control Panel at all. The first option provides you with an easy to navigate graphical interface, via which you are able to manage everything related to your web presence using only a web browser - files, e-mail accounts, databases, and the like. Without a Control Panel at hand, you will have to do everything through a console, yet you will have full root access and you'll be able to install any software that may not be supported by Hepsia. You can also add the optional Managed Services package, which includes regular Operating System updates.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

Each dedicated server that we provide can be installed with Debian and we will test the software environment carefully before we hand over the machine in order to make sure that it'll perform perfectly. You're able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release during the sign-up process, so the apps that you set up can get the maximum out of your server. We can also keep your OS up-to-date when you add the additional Managed Services package to your plan. In case you order your Debian-driven server without a web hosting Control Panel, you will be able to do anything you like with the machine and you'll have full root-level access, however you'll need to be more skillful, as all the tasks will be performed through a Secure Shell console. When you obtain your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you will receive a web interface, through which you can control domains, files, databases, etc, and this might be the best option if you aren't very experienced, but a certain application that you'd like to use requires Debian. You will have access to your Hepsia-equipped server through SSH as well, yet the things that you'll be able to do will be limited.
