Debian is an Operating System which uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually set up on desktops, it is being used on a growing number of web servers as well. The reason is that it's very stable, so a server running it will not need to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being among the most risk-free Operating Systems to be found, due to the fact that security patches are released within days after an issue is discovered. This is possible because thousands of skilled 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 within 20 minutes to any kind of question. In this light, you will enjoy an outstanding level of 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 completely free to use, you're able to modify both the core as well as any of the packages in any way you see fit. Also, you will not be required to pay any kind of license fees.

Debian in VPS Hosting

When you need a server running Debian, you can opt for any of the virtual private server plans that we offer and choose this Operating System on the registration page. You will be able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version, because we give you the option to choose the right one, depending on the software which you'd like to install on your server once it is up and running. When you are more tech-savvy, you may get a Debian-powered VPS without a Control Panel, so that you will have full root access and you'll be able to manage the content and the software through SSH. If you are less experienced, but you'd like to use an app that requires Debian, you will be able to select our Hepsia web hosting Control Panel on the order page and you'll be able to manage the entire server like a standard shared hosting account. In addition, you can take advantage of the optional Managed Services upgrade that we offer, as it includes weekly Operating System updates done by our admins, among many other useful things.

Debian in Dedicated Web Hosting

Each and every dedicated server that we offer can be installed with Debian and we'll test the program environment completely before we hand over the machine to ensure that it will perform perfectly. You are able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version during the signup process, so that the apps that you install will be able to get the maximum out of your server. We will also maintain your Operating System up-to-date when you add the additional Managed Services package to your plan. When you get your Debian-driven server without a website hosting Control Panel, you can do anything you like with the machine and you'll have full root-level access, but you will need to be more skillful, because all of the tasks will be performed through a Secure Shell console. When you get your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you will receive a web interface, via which you will be able to control domains, files, databases, and many others, and this might be a better option in case you aren't very experienced, and a specific application which you'd like to use requires Debian. You can access your Hepsia-equipped server through SSH too, but the things which you can do will be restricted.
