Debian is an OS that uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually set up on desktop machines, it is being used on more and more web servers too. The reason is that it's very stable, so a server running it will not need to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be among the most safe Operating Systems you can get, because security patches are released within days after a problem is found. This is possible since thousands of well-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 through special e-mail lists and reply in 20 minutes to any question. Thus, you'll 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 the Linux distributions with the highest number of packages - more than 30,000. Since the Operating System is absolutely free to use, you can modify both the core and all of the packages in any way you see fit. Also, you will not be required to pay any kind of license fees.

Debian in Dedicated Hosting

You will be able to select the Debian OS for your new dedicated server with a mouse click on our order page and depending on your choice, we'll set up the 32-bit or the 64-bit version of the OS on the machine, to ensure that the software that you will install later will perform in the very best way. Choosing a server without Control Panel, you'll get Debian and the Apache web server software and you can control everything through a console. A server which is ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel will include all of the software that you may need for your websites. Though with the latter option the root access will be restricted, you can control the server as if it were a shared web hosting account, thus you can take advantage of a dedicated machine even if you do not have previous experience with this kind of hosting service. If you buy our Managed Services upgrade, we'll take care of your server and will update its OS on a weekly basis to ensure that you have the most recent and most safe edition.
