Debian is a widespread Linux release, that is used mainly on desktop machines, however numerous people have started using it lately as a web server OS as well, due to the stability and protection it offers. The latter is a consequence of the fact that Debian is developed and supported by countless qualified volunteers all around the world, which means that any patch that is needed to fix a certain issue is released within a few days. The very same community can also help with any question or trouble which a user may ever experience, as they can be contacted through e-mail using e-mail lists and a competent response will be sent in around 15-20 min. The advantage here is that all your questions will be addressed by the same people who have designed the Operating System itself and they have a detailed knowledge of how it functions. As Debian is free, you won't have to pay any kind of license fees to use it and you can personalize it as much as you want or need. This is valid for both the Operating System as well as the 30.000+ software packages that are available for it.
Debian in VPS
If you need a server running Debian, you can opt for any of the virtual private server solutions that we supply and choose this Operating System on the order page. You can choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version, since we give you the option to select the more appropriate one, according to the software that you wish to install on your server once it's set up. When you're more tech-savvy, you may get a Debian-powered VPS with no Control Panel, so that you'll have full root access and you can manage the content and the software using SSH. In case you are less experienced, but you would like to use an app that requires Debian, you will be able to pick the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel on the order page and you can manage the whole server like a standard shared hosting account. You may also take full advantage of the optional Managed Services upgrade that we provide, since it includes once a week Operating System updates performed by our admins, among other useful things.
Debian in Dedicated Hosting
You'll be able to select the Debian Operating System for your new dedicated server with a click on our order page and according to your choice, we'll set up the 32-bit or the 64-bit edition of the OS on the machine, so that the software that you'll install later will perform in the right way. Choosing a server without any Control Panel, you will get Debian and the Apache web server software and you can control everything using a console. A server that's obtained with the Hepsia Control Panel will feature all of the software which you may need for your websites. Though with the latter option the root access is limited, you'll be able to manage the server as if it were a shared web hosting account, thus you can take advantage of a dedicated machine even if you do not have previous experience with this type of web hosting service. If you order the Managed Services upgrade, we'll maintain your server and will update its OS every week so as to make sure that you have the latest and most secure version.
