Debian is an Operating System that uses the Linux kernel. Though it is usually installed on desktops, it's being used on more and more web servers as well. The reason is that it is very stable, so a server running it will not need to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being among the most safe Operating Systems you can get, since security patches are released within days after a problem is discovered. This is possible because thousands of well-experienced 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 via special e-mail lists and respond in twenty minutes to any question. In this light, you'll enjoy top-level support directly from the developers who know their own platform in depth, and not from a third-party support team. Debian is also one of several Linux releases with the highest number of packages - more than 30,000. As the Operating System is absolutely free to use, you will be able to modify both the core and all the packages in any way you see fit. Also, you will not be required to pay any license fees.

Debian in Dedicated Web Hosting

Each dedicated server that we offer can be set up with Debian and we'll test the program environment carefully before we hand over your machine to ensure that it will perform properly. You can pick the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release throughout the signup process, so the applications which you install can get the maximum out of your server. We will also maintain your Operating System up-to-date if you add the optional Managed Services package to your plan. In case you acquire your Debian-driven server without a hosting Control Panel, you can do anything you like with the machine and you'll have full root-level access, however you'll have to be more experienced, because all of the tasks will be performed through a Secure Shell console. When you acquire your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you'll have a web interface, through which you'll be able to manage domains, files, databases, and many others, and this might be a better option when you aren't very experienced, but a specific application that you need to use requires Debian. You will have access to your Hepsia-equipped server via SSH too, but the things that you can do will be limited.
