Ubuntu is a preferred desktop Operating System, that uses the Linux kernel, and its server version is getting quite popular as well. The reason is that the OS is amazingly light and it will run on almost any hardware without issues, utilizing its resources to the fullest. Ubuntu is also pretty reliable and secure and all of the Long-Term Support (LTS) releases are supported for a minimum of five years, which guarantees that you should have a safe and dependable software environment on your hosting server all the time. Also, Ubuntu has one of the largest user communities on earth, so if you experience any issue or have any question, you will find lots of resources on the Internet. One of the key benefits of this OS is the fact that it has tens of thousands of software packages that can be easily customized according to your needs and / or the needs of the apps which you want to run, not to mention that you will not have to pay any license fees any time. In comparison, other OS's are paid and their program code is not accessible, thus it cannot be changed.

Ubuntu in VPS Hosting

We offer Ubuntu with all of our Linux VPS hosting and based on what system requirements your web apps have, you'll be able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit version of the OS with just a few mouse clicks during the order process. When you get your server without a website hosting Control Panel, the only piece of software that will be set up along with Ubuntu will be the Apache web server software, which means that you will be able to use a console to gain access to the server and to build a software environment that you choose. If you acquire your server with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you will have a web interface with which you are able to control almost everything as quickly as you control an ordinary shared account and all vital MySQL, FTP and email server software will be pre-installed, but the root access to your server is restricted. If you don't have a lot experience, or if you don't wish to waste time on VPS control procedures, you are able to take full advantage of the Managed Services upgrade, that features regular Ubuntu Operating System updates.

Ubuntu in Dedicated Web Hosting

Ubuntu is one of the Operating System options that you'll find on our registration page if you choose to acquire one of our Linux dedicated web hosting. We will set up the 32-bit or the 64-bit release, so as to match the system requirements of the apps that you need to set up on the server. You may also select the software which will run on your machine, because we will install only the Apache web server software, so the rest can be customized software of your liking. You are able to install the latter without any problems by using a Secure Shell console, because you will have root-level access and you'll have full control over the server. You are free to install a web hosting Control Panel as well and control some things using a graphical interface, as long as it can work on an Ubuntu-driven machine. To make things simpler for you, we also provide a Managed Services upgrade, which, among other things, comes with Operating System updates.
