Debian is an Operating System which uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually installed on desktop machines, it's being used on an increasing number of 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 among the most protected Operating Systems to be found, since security patches are released within days after a problem is found. 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 via special e-mail lists and respond within 20 min to any kind of question. Thus, you will get an outstanding level of 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 several Linux releases with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. As the Operating System is free to use, you'll be able to modify both the core and any of the packages in any way you see fit. Furthermore, you will not be required to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS Servers

There're several Operating Systems that we offer with our VPS servers and Debian is one of them, which means that if you need a server with this OS, you will be able to have one in under 1 hour. We also offer 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS to ensure that the VPS you will receive will completely cover the system requirements of any kind of web or offline application that you want to install on the server. Managing the content on the server can be performed in two ways, according to the choice you make on the order page. Without a Control Panel, you are able to do everything on your Debian-equipped server using Secure Shell, as you will have root-level access, while using the Hepsia Control Panel, the root access will have certain limitations, but you'll be able to do everything through your Internet browser using a handy web interface, even when you are not very experienced. When you use the optional Managed Services package that we supply, we will also keep your Debian OS up to date every week, saving you time and effort.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

Each and every dedicated server that we provide can be set up with Debian and we will test the software environment carefully before we hand over the machine so as to make sure that it'll perform appropriately. You'll be able to choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version throughout the sign-up process, so the applications which you set up will be able to get the maximum out of your server. We will also keep your OS up-to-date if you add the additional Managed Services package to your plan. When you get your Debian-driven server without a web hosting Control Panel, you will be able to do anything you want with your machine and you will have full root-level access, but you will need to be more experienced, as all of the tasks will be performed through a Secure Shell console. If you obtain your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you will have a web interface, through which you'll be able to control domains, files, databases, etc, and this might be the best option when you are not very experienced, but a particular application that you wish to use requires Debian. You'll have access to your Hepsia-equipped server via SSH too, however the things which you are able to do are limited.
