Debian is an Operating System which uses the Linux kernel. Though it is usually set up on personal computers, it's being used on a growing number of web servers too. The reason is that it's really stable, so a server running it will not have to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be among the most protected Operating Systems to choose from, due to the fact that security patches are released within days after a problem is discovered. This is possible since thousands of qualified developers are employed by the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, in addition, they provide 24/7 support through special e-mail lists and reply in twenty minutes to any question. Thus, you'll have 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 one of several Linux distributions with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. Since the Operating System is absolutely free to use, you can modify both the core as well as all of the packages in any way you see fit. Furthermore, you will not be required to pay any kind of license fees.

Debian in VPS Servers

If you need a server running Debian, you can opt for any of the VPS server plans that we offer and pick this Operating System on the registration page. You can choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release, because we give you the option to pick the more appropriate one, according to the software that you want to install on your server once it is up and running. If you are more tech-savvy, you can get a Debian-powered VPS with no Control Panel, and you will have full root access and you'll be able to manage the content and the software via SSH. If you are less experienced, but you would like to use an app that requires Debian, you are able to choose the Hepsia hosting Control Panel on the order page and you will be able to manage the entire server like a standard shared web hosting account. In addition, you can benefit from the optional Managed Services upgrade that we supply, because it comes with weekly Operating System updates performed by our admins, among various other useful things.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

Each and every dedicated server that we supply can be set up with Debian and we will test the software environment in detail before we hand over the machine so as to ensure that it'll perform flawlessly. You will be able to choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release throughout the sign-up process, so the applications which you set up can get the maximum out of your server. We can also maintain your OS up-to-date if you add the optional Managed Services package to your plan. If you acquire your Debian-driven server without a hosting Control Panel, you'll be able to do anything you want with your machine and you will have full root-level access, yet you will have to be more skillful, since all of the tasks will be performed using a Secure Shell console. When you obtain your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you will receive a web interface, via which you'll be able to manage domains, files, databases, etc, and this might be the best option if you aren't very experienced, and a certain application which you want to use requires Debian. You'll have access to your Hepsia-equipped server through SSH as well, but the things which you can do are restricted.
