Debian is a popular Linux distribution, which is used mainly on desktop computers, but lots of people have started using it lately as a web server Operating System too, because of the stability and security it provides. The latter is a result of the fact that Debian is developed and supported by numerous qualified volunteers worldwide, so any patch that is necessary to fix a certain issue is released within a couple of days. The same community can also help with any question or problem that a user may ever experience, since they can be contacted via email using mailing lists and a qualified response will be sent in around 15-20 minutes. The advantage here is that your queries will be replied by the same people who have developed the Operating System itself and they have a detailed knowledge of how it functions. As Debian is absolutely free, you will not have to pay any license fees to use it and you will be able to customize it as much as you want or need. This is valid for the Operating System and the 30.000+ software packages that are readily available for it.

Debian in VPS Servers

There're a few Operating Systems that we provide with our VPS web hosting plans and Debian is among them, which means that when you need a server with this Operating System, you'll be able to get one in under one hour. In addition, we offer 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS to ensure that the VPS you'll have will fully cover the system requirements of any kind of web or offline application which you need to install on the server. Controlling the content on the server can be performed in two ways, based on the choice you make on the order page. With no Control Panel, you're able to do everything on your Debian-equipped server using Secure Shell, as you will have root-level access, whereas with the Hepsia Control Panel, the root access will have certain restrictions, but you'll be able to do everything from your web browser using an intuitive web interface, even if you are not very experienced. When you use the optional Managed Services package which we offer, we will also keep your Debian OS up to date weekly, saving you time and effort.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

You will be able to pick the Debian OS for your new dedicated server with a click on our registration page and according to your choice, we will install the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of the OS on the machine, so that the software that you will install later will work in the best possible way. Selecting a server without Control Panel, you'll receive Debian and the Apache web server software and you are able to control everything using a console. A server that is obtained with the Hepsia Control Panel will come with all of the software that you will need for your sites. Although with the latter option the root access will be restricted, you can control the server as if it were a shared website hosting account, so that 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 purchase the Managed Services upgrade, we'll maintain your server and will update its OS on a weekly basis to make sure that you have the latest and most secure version.
