Debian
See why lots of system admins head straight for Debian when selecting an OS for their servers.
Debian is a popular Linux release, which is used mainly on desktop machines, but many people have started using it lately as a web server Operating System too, due to the stability and protection it provides. The latter is a direct result the fact that Debian is developed and supported by a large number of qualified volunteers worldwide, which means that any patch that's required to fix some issue is released within a matter of days. The same community will also help you with any question or trouble which a user may ever encounter, due to the fact that they can be contacted through electronic mail using e-mail lists and a qualified response will be sent in no more than 15-20 min. The advantage here is that all of your questions will be addressed by the same people who have made the Operating System itself and they have a detailed knowledge of how it functions. As Debian is absolutely free, you will not need to pay any license fees to use it and you will be able to personalize it as much as you want or need. This is valid for both the Operating System and the 30.000+ software packages which are readily available for it.

Debian in VPS Servers
There're several Operating Systems that we provide with our
VPS servers and Debian is among them, therefore when you'd like to have a server with this OS, you will be able to get one in less than 1 hour. In addition, we offer 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS to make sure that the VPS you will get will completely cover the system requirements of any kind of web or offline app which you would like to install on the server. Controlling the content on the server can be done in two ways, according to the choice you make on the order page. Without a Control Panel, you can do everything on your Debian-equipped server using Secure Shell, as you'll have root-level access, while through the Hepsia Control Panel, the root access will have some restrictions, but you will be able to do everything from your browser using a user-friendly web interface, even when you are not very experienced. When you use the optional Managed Services package that we supply, we'll also keep your Debian OS up to date on a weekly basis, saving you time and effort.

Debian in Dedicated Servers
You will be able to pick the Debian Operating System for your new
dedicated server with a mouse click on our order page and according to your choice, we'll set up the 32-bit or the 64-bit version of the OS on the machine, to ensure that the software that you'll install later will work in the optimal way. Selecting a server with no Control Panel, you'll receive Debian and the Apache web server software and you'll be able to control everything through a console. A server that's ordered with our Hepsia Control Panel will come with all of the software which you will need for your Internet sites. Though with the latter option the root access will be restricted, you'll be able to manage the server as if it were a shared hosting account, thus you can take advantage of a dedicated machine even if you have no previous expertise in this type of web hosting service. If you order the Managed Services upgrade, we'll take care of your server and will update its OS on a weekly basis in order to ensure that you have the latest and most safe edition.
