Debian is a Linux distribution, that is preffered for desktop machines, however it's been gaining in popularity as a server Operating System over the last couple of years as well. It's really stable and secure, due to the fact that fixes are released in a couple of days after a problem is discovered. Debian has a large support community, so when you have any questions or troubles with the OS or with any of the 30,000+ packages it includes, you can easily contact the developers directly via electronic mail using special e-mail lists and receive a reply in 15-20 min. The Debian community supplies the best level of support possible, as all your questions will be handled by the very same people that created Debian in the first place, so they have a detailed knowledge of how their own system operates. Because the Operating System is absolutely free to use and distribute, no license costs will be added to your web hosting fees and you will be able to modify the code files and any other software that you install without restrictions, in order to optimize the software environment for your websites. Furthermore, Debian performs very well on any hardware, as it is light and fast and doesn't need a lot of memory.

Debian in VPS Servers

You will be able to get a Debian-powered VPS server with any of our VPS solutions and you'll be able to choose if the version that will be installed throughout the server setup process will be 32-bit or 64-bit. This way, you can guarantee that the software environment will meet the requirements of the apps that you wish to run and that the latter will function correctly. During the order process, you can also decide if the VPS will come with the Hepsia Control Panel or without Control Panel at all. The first option will provide you with an easy to navigate graphical interface, via that you are able to control everything related to your world wide web presence using only a web browser - files, e-mail addresses, databases, and so on. Without Control Panel at hand, you will need to make everything through a console, yet you'll have full root access and you will be able to install any software that may not be compatible with Hepsia. You may also add our optional Managed Services package, which includes regular Operating System updates.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

32-bit and 64-bit versions of Debian are available on our dedicated server order page and you're able to choose all of them with just a single click for your brand new server, based on what software environment the applications which you wish to use require for the best performance. You may also select whether our Hepsia Control Panel should be set up on the server or if it should come without Control Panel at all. The first option is made for inexperienced users who want a Debian-powered server, yet would like to manage it like a shared web hosting account, while the second option is good for more advanced users who want to have more control, because ‘no Control Panel' means only Debian and the Apache web server software, and no other software set up on the server whatsoever. We will also save you time and effort with the Managed Services upgrade, because it includes routine Operating System updates, so that you'll have a secure and stable Debian installation.
