Debian
To what does the Debian OS owe its popularity? What has made it the Linux distribution of choice for countless server admins?
Debian is an Operating System which uses the Linux kernel. Though it is usually installed on desktops, it's being used on a growing number of web servers too. The reason is that it is very stable, so a server running it will not need to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being one of the most secure Operating Systems you can get, since security patches are released within days after a problem is found. This is possible because thousands of well-trained developers work 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 through special mailing lists and respond in 20 minutes to any kind of question. Thus, you will get 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 among the Linux releases with the highest number of packages - more than 30,000. As the Operating System is absolutely free to use, you are able to modify both the core and all of the packages in the way you see fit. In addition, you won't be required to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS
You're able to select the Debian Operating System with each
virtual private server package that we offer. 32-bit and 64-bit releases 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 install and run later. A Debian-powered VPS can be installed either without Control Panel or with our tailor-made Hepsia Control Panel. In the first case, you will have more freedom, considering that 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 is restricted, but you're able to control your world wide web content via a web interface, not a console. If you don't have much time to maintain your Debian-powered server, or if you do not have much experience, you can add the Managed Services upgrade to your package and our administrators will handle the regular OS updates.

If you have less experience, but you need Debian for a specific computer program, you will be able to acquire the server with our Hepsia Control Panel. Regardless that the root access will be more limited, you'll be able to do anything related to your world wide web content without difficulty by means of a user-friendly graphical interface.
