Debian
To what does the Debian OS owe its popularity? What has made it the Linux distribution of choice for many server admins?
Debian is a popular Linux release, that's used mainly on desktop machines, however a lot of people have begun using it lately as a web server OS as well, due to the stability and protection it provides. The latter is a consequence of the fact that Debian is developed and supported by countless qualified volunteers internationally, which means that any patch that is needed to fix a certain issue is released within a couple of days. The very same community can also help you with any question or problem which a user may ever have, as they can be contacted via email using e-mail lists and a qualified response will be sent in no more than 15-20 min. The advantage here is that your queries will be answered by the same people who have made the Operating System itself and they have a detailed knowledge of how it works. As Debian is absolutely free, you will not have to pay any license fees to use it and you'll be able to customize it as much as you want or need. This is valid for the Operating System as well as the 30.000+ software packages that are readily available for it.

Debian in VPS Hosting
You can select the Debian Operating System with each
virtual private server solution that we provide. 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS are some of the options that you can find on the order page, so you can select the one that will be more suitable for the software that you need to set up and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be set up either with no Control Panel or with our tailor-made Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you will have more freedom, because you will have full root access and you can make use of the advantages and the full functionality supplied by Debian. In the second case, the root access will be restricted, yet you're able to control your world wide web content through a web interface, not a console. In case you don't have a lot of time to command your Debian-powered server, or if you don't have substantial experience, you could add the Managed Services upgrade to your package and our admins will handle the weekly OS updates.

Debian in Dedicated Web Hosting
Each
dedicated server that we supply can be set up with Debian and we will test the program environment in depth before we hand over your machine to make sure that it will perform flawlessly. You are able to pick the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version during the signup process, so the apps which you install will be able to get the maximum out of your server. We will also maintain your OS up-to-date if you add the additional Managed Services package to your plan. In case you acquire your Debian-driven server without a hosting Control Panel, you'll 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 skillful, as all of the tasks will be performed using a Secure Shell console. If you get your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you will have a web interface, through which you can manage domains, files, databases, etc, and this might be a better option when you aren't very experienced, but a specific application that you would like to use requires Debian. You will have access to your Hepsia-equipped server via SSH as well, however the things which you'll be able to do will be limited.
