Debian is an OS which uses the Linux kernel. Even though it is usually installed on desktop computers, it is being used on an increasing number of web servers as well. The reason is that it's very stable, so a server running it won't need to be restarted for months. Debian is also considered to be among the most risk-free Operating Systems to choose from, since security patches are released within days after a problem is discovered. This is possible because thousands of experienced developers are part of the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, they also provide 24/7 support by using special mailing lists and reply in twenty minutes to any kind of question. Thus, you'll obtain top-notch support directly from the developers who know their own platform in depth, and not from a third-party support team. Debian is also one of several Linux releases with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. As the Operating System costs nothing to use, you can modify both the core as well as all of the packages in the way you see fit. Also, you won't need to pay any kind of license fees.
Debian in Dedicated Hosting
With our Linux dedicated servers hosting packages, you are able to get a hosting powerhouse running Debian in no time. This Operating System is one of the options that you'll get throughout the registration process and you are able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit release, depending on what software environment your apps need. In case you want to have full root access, you're able to get a server with no Control Panel, so you will have more freedom when it comes to what you can do with the machine through SSH. In case you have less experience, yet you need Debian for a particular computer program, you're able to order the server with our Hepsia Control Panel. Though the root access is more limited, you can do anything related to your online content with ease employing a user-friendly graphical interface. When you add the optional Managed Services bundle to your dedicated server plan, our system administrators will handle the weekly OS enhancements. They'll perform many other useful tasks for you too.
