Debian
See why lots of system administrators head straight for Debian each time selecting an OS for their servers.
Debian is a Linux release, that is preffered for desktop computers, yet it has been gaining popularity as a server OS during the last couple of years as well. It is really stable and safe, as fixes are released in a few days after an issue is discovered. Debian has a large support community, so if you have any kind of questions or problems with the OS or with some of the 30,000+ packages it is equipped with, you can easily contact the developers directly via e-mail using special mailing lists and receive a reply within 15-20 min. The Debian community provides the best level of support possible, as all of your questions will be handled by exactly the same people that built Debian in the first place, so they have a detailed knowledge of how their own system operates. As the Operating System is free to use and distribute, no license costs will be included with your hosting fees and you'll be able to customize the code files and any additional software that you install with no restrictions, in order to optimize the software environment for your sites. Furthermore, Debian performs very well on any kind of hardware, as it is light and quick and doesn't require much memory.

Debian in VPS Servers
There're a few Operating Systems that we offer with our
VPS web hosting plans and Debian is among them, therefore if you'd like to have a server with this Operating System, you'll be able to obtain one in less than one hour. In addition, we offer 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS to make sure that the VPS you'll obtain will fully cover the system requirements of any kind of web or offline app that you wish to install on the server. Controlling the content on the server can be done in two ways, based on the choice you make on the order page. Without a Control Panel, you will be able to do everything on your Debian-equipped server through Secure Shell, as you'll have root-level access, whereas with the Hepsia Control Panel, the root access will have some restrictions, but you will be able to do everything through your browser using an intuitive web interface, even if you aren't very experienced. When you use the optional Managed Services package that we supply, we'll also maintain your Debian OS updated weekly, saving you time and effort.

Debian in Dedicated Servers
Each and every
dedicated server that we supply can be installed with Debian and we will test the program environment in depth before we hand over your server to make sure that it'll perform properly. You are able to choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release during the sign-up process, so that the applications that you install will be able to get the maximum out of your server. We will also keep your Operating System up-to-date when you add the optional Managed Services package to your plan. In case you order your Debian-driven server without a website hosting Control Panel, you'll be able to do anything you like with the machine and you'll have full root-level access, yet you will have to be more experienced, since all the tasks will be performed through a Secure Shell console. If you get your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you will have a web interface, via which you can manage domains, files, databases, and many others, and this might be the best option in case you aren't very experienced, and a specific app which you'd like to use requires Debian. You will have access to your Hepsia-equipped server via SSH too, however the things which you're able to do will be restricted.
