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

Debian in VPS Servers

There are a few Operating Systems that we provide with our Linux VPS service and Debian is one of them, so if you'd like to have a server with this OS, you will be able to acquire one in under an hour. We also offer 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS to make sure that the VPS you will have will fully cover the system requirements of any kind of web or offline application that you want to install on the server. Controlling the content on the server can be performed in two ways, based on the choice you make on the order page. Without a Control Panel, you are able to do everything on your Debian-equipped server through Secure Shell, as you will have root-level access, whereas through the Hepsia Control Panel, the root access will have some restrictions, but you can do everything through your Internet browser using a handy web interface, even when you aren't very experienced. Using the optional Managed Services package that we supply, we can also keep your Debian OS up to date on a weekly basis, saving you time and effort.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

32-bit and 64-bit releases of Debian are available on our dedicated server order page and you're able to select any of them with just a click for your new server, depending on what software environment the apps that you would like to use require for the best performance. You can also select whether our Hepsia Control Panel should be set up on the server or if it should come without a Control Panel at all. The first option is made for inexperienced users who need a Debian-powered server, but wish to manage it like a shared hosting account, while the second option is good for more experienced users who need to have more control, since ‘no Control Panel' stands for only Debian and the Apache web server software, but no other software installed on the server whatsoever. We will also save your time and effort with the Managed Services upgrade, because it includes routine Operating System updates, so that you will have a secure and stable Debian installation.
