Debian is an Operating System that uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually set up on personal computers, it's being used on a growing number of web servers too. The reason is that it is really stable, so a server running it won't have to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be one of the most protected Operating Systems out there, due to the fact that security patches are released within days after an issue is found. This is possible since thousands of experienced developers are working for the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, in addition, they provide 24/7 support by using special e-mail lists and reply within 20 min to any question. Thus, you'll enjoy top-level 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 the Linux distributions with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. Since the Operating System is absolutely free to use, you will be able to modify both the core and all of the packages in any way you see fit. In addition, you will not need to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS

When you need a server running Debian, you can opt for any of the virtual private server packages that we offer and select this Operating System on the registration page. You'll be able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release, as we give you the option to choose the more appropriate one, depending on the software that you want to install on your server once it's up and running. In case you're more tech-savvy, you can get a Debian-powered VPS with no Control Panel, and you will have full root access and you'll be able to manage the content and the software using SSH. If you are less experienced, yet you'd like to use software which requires Debian, you are able to select our Hepsia hosting Control Panel on the order page and you can manage the whole server like a standard shared web hosting account. You may also reap the benefits of the optional Managed Services upgrade that we provide, as it comes with weekly Operating System updates done by our admins, among other useful things.

Debian in Dedicated Hosting

Each dedicated server that we provide can be installed with Debian and we'll test the program environment in detail before we hand over your server in order to ensure that it will perform appropriately. You can choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version during the signup process, so the applications which you install will be able to get the maximum out of your server. We will also keep your OS up-to-date when you add the additional Managed Services package to your plan. When you order your Debian-driven server without a hosting Control Panel, you will be able to do anything you want with your machine and you will have full root-level access, yet you'll have to be more experienced, as all of the tasks will be performed through a Secure Shell console. When you obtain your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you will have a web interface, through which you will be able to control domains, files, databases, and many others, and this might be the best option when you are not very experienced, but a specific application which you intend to use requires Debian. You'll have access to your Hepsia-equipped server through SSH as well, however the things that you can do are restricted.
