Debian is a Linux release, that is widespread for desktop computers, but it's been gaining in popularity as a server OS over the last few years as well. It's very dependable and protected, since fixes are released within a couple of days after a problem is discovered. Debian has a large support community, so if you have any questions or issues with the OS or with some of the 30,000+ packages it is equipped with, you can contact the developers directly via electronic mail using special e-mail lists and receive a response in 15-20 min. The Debian community offers the best level of support possible, since your questions will be handled by exactly the same people that built Debian in the first place, so they have an in-depth knowledge of how their system works. As the Operating System is 100% free to use and distribute, no license charges will be included with your hosting fees and you can customize the program code files and any additional software that you install without any restrictions, so as to optimize the software environment for your websites. What's more, Debian performs very well on any hardware, as it is light and fast and doesn't require much memory.
Debian in VPS Servers
You'll be able to obtain a Debian-powered VPS server with any of our VPS packages and you will be able to choose if the version that will be installed throughout the server setup process will be 32-bit or 64-bit. In this way, you'll guarantee that the software environment will match the requirements of the applications that you need to run and that the latter will run properly. Throughout the order process, you may also select whether the VPS will come with the Hepsia Control Panel or without Control Panel at all. The first option gives you a user-friendly graphical interface, through that you are able to control everything related to your online presence using only an Internet browser - files, e-mail addresses, databases, and the like. Without a Control Panel at hand, you will have to make everything through a console, yet you will have full root access and you'll be able to set up any software that may not be supported by Hepsia. In addition, you can add our optional Managed Services package, that includes weekly Operating System updates.
Debian in Dedicated Servers
32-bit and 64-bit editions of Debian are available on our dedicated server order page and you are able to choose all of them with only a single click for your brand new server, based on what software environment the applications that you plan to use require for top notch performance. You can also select whether our Hepsia Control Panel should be installed on the server or whether it should come without a Control Panel at all. The first option is suitable for less experienced users who want a Debian-powered server, yet would like to control it like a shared website hosting account, whereas the second option is suitable for more advanced users who would like to have more control, since ‘no Control Panel' stands for only Debian and the Apache web server software, and no other software installed on the server whatsoever. We'll also save your time and effort with the Managed Services upgrade, because it comes with regular Operating System updates, to ensure that you will have a safe and stable Debian installation.
