Debian is a Linux release, that's preffered for desktop machines, but it has been gaining in popularity as a server Operating System during the last few years as well. It's really stable and risk-free, because fixes are released within 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 any of the 30,000+ packages it includes, you'll be able to contact the developers right away through e-mail using special mailing lists and receive a reply in just 15-20 min. The Debian community supplies the top level of support possible, as your questions will be handled by the same people who built Debian in the first place, so they have a thorough knowledge of how their system operates. Since the Operating System is absolutely free to use and distribute, no license costs will be included with your web hosting fees and you will be able to modify the program code files and any additional software that you install without any restrictions, in order to optimize the software environment for your web sites. What's more, Debian performs really well on any hardware, because it is light and quick and does not need a lot of memory.

Debian in VPS Servers

When you need a server running Debian, you can opt for any of the VPS server plans that we supply and choose this Operating System on the order page. You will be able to choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release, since we give you the option to select the right one, according to the software that you would like to install on your server once it's up and running. If you're more tech-savvy, you may get a Debian-powered VPS without a Control Panel, so you will have full root access and you are able to manage the content and the software via SSH. In case you are less experienced, yet you'd like to use an application that requires Debian, you are able to pick our Hepsia web hosting Control Panel on the order page and you can manage the entire server like a standard shared web hosting account. In addition, you can reap the benefits of the optional Managed Services upgrade that we offer, as it comes with regular Operating System updates done by our admins, among many other useful things.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

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