Debian
Read why the Debian Linux distribution is so favored and why a lot of server admins select it for their servers.
Debian is a well-known Linux distribution, that's used primarily on PC's, however many people have begun using it lately as a web server OS as well, due to the stability and security it provides. The latter is a consequence of the fact that Debian is developed and supported by a large number of qualified volunteers all around the world, therefore any patch that is needed to fix a certain issue is released in a matter of days. The same community will also help with any question or issue which a user may ever experience, as they can be contacted via e-mail using e-mail lists and a competent response will be sent in no more than 15-20 minutes. The advantage here is that all your questions will be replied by the same people who have made the Operating System itself and they have a detailed knowledge of how it works. As Debian is free, you won't need to pay any kind of license fees to use it and you can personalize it as much as you want or need. This is valid for the Operating System as well as the 30.000+ software packages that are readily available for it.

Debian in VPS Servers
There are a few Operating Systems that we supply with our
Linux VPS hosting service and Debian is among them, therefore if you'd like to have a server with this OS, you'll be able to have one in under one hour. We also offer 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS to ensure that the VPS you will receive will fully cover the system requirements of any kind of web or offline application that you want 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're able to do everything on your Debian-equipped server using Secure Shell, as you will have root-level access, while with the Hepsia Control Panel, the root access will have some restrictions, but you'll be able to do everything from your browser using an intuitive web interface, even when you aren't very experienced. When you use the optional Managed Services package that we offer, we can also maintain your Debian OS updated on a weekly basis, saving you effort and time.

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 depending on your choice, we'll set up the 32-bit or the 64-bit edition of the OS on the machine, to ensure that the software that you will install later will work in the optimal way. Using a server with no Control Panel, you will receive Debian and the Apache web server software and you'll be able to manage everything using a console. A server which is ordered with our Hepsia Control Panel will feature all of the software that you'll need for your web sites. Even though with the latter option the root access will be restricted, you'll be able to control the server as if it were a shared web hosting account, which means that you can take advantage of a dedicated machine even if you don't have previous expertise in this type of hosting service. When you order the Managed Services upgrade, we'll maintain your server and will update its OS weekly to ensure that you have the most recent and most risk-free release.
