Debian is an Operating System which uses the Linux kernel. Even though it is usually set up on desktop machines, it's being used on an increasing number of web servers too. The reason is that it is really stable, so a server running it won't have to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be one of the most protected Operating Systems you can get, since security patches are released within days after an issue is found. This is possible since thousands of experienced 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 min to any question. In this light, you will 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 are able to modify both the core and all of the packages in the way you see fit. Furthermore, you won't have to pay any kind of license fees.

Debian in Dedicated Servers Hosting

Each and every dedicated server that we supply can be set up with Debian and we will test the software environment thoroughly before we hand over the machine in order to ensure that it'll perform perfectly. You are able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version throughout the sign-up process, so the apps which you install will be able to get the maximum out of your server. We will also keep your Operating System up-to-date if you add the additional Managed Services package to your plan. When you get your Debian-driven server without a web hosting Control Panel, you'll be able to do anything you want with your machine and you'll have full root-level access, yet you will need to be more skillful, as all of the tasks will be performed using a Secure Shell console. If you get your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you'll receive a web interface, through which you can manage domains, files, databases, etc, and this might be a better option if you are not very experienced, and a specific application that you need to use requires Debian. You have access to your Hepsia-equipped server through SSH too, however the things which you'll be able to do are limited.
