Debian is an OS that uses the Linux kernel. Although it is usually set up on desktop machines, it's being used on more and more web servers too. The reason is that it is really stable, so a server running it won't have to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being among the most safe Operating Systems nowadays, 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, in addition, they provide 24/7 support via special mailing lists and respond in 20 min to any question. In this light, you'll have top-level 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 distributions with the highest number of packages - over 30,000. As the Operating System is absolutely free to use, you can modify both the core and all of the packages in the way you see fit. Also, you won't have to pay any license fees.

Debian in VPS Servers

If you need a server running Debian, you can opt for any of the VPS server plans that we provide and select this Operating System on the registration page. You can select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release, since we give you the option to select the right one, based on the software that you'd like to install on your server once it's up and running. In case you're more tech-savvy, you may get a Debian-powered VPS without a Control Panel, and you'll have full root access and you can manage the content and the software through SSH. If you are less experienced, yet you'd like to use an app that requires Debian, you're able to choose the Hepsia hosting Control Panel on the order page and you will be able to manage the whole server like a standard shared web hosting account. You may also take full advantage of the optional Managed Services upgrade that we supply, since it features regular Operating System updates performed by our administrators, among many other useful things.

Debian in Dedicated Servers

32-bit and 64-bit releases of Debian are available on our dedicated server order page and you're able to select any of them with just a mouse click for your brand new machine, based on what software environment the apps that you wish to use require for optimal performance. You may also select whether our Hepsia Control Panel should be installed on the server or if it should come without Control Panel at all. The first option is made for less experienced users who need a Debian-powered server, but would like to manage it like a shared hosting account, while the second option is suitable for more experienced users who wish to have more control, due to the fact that ‘no Control Panel' stands for only Debian and the Apache web server software, and no other software set up on the server at all. We'll also save your time and effort with the Managed Services upgrade, as it includes regular Operating System updates, to ensure that you'll have a secure and stable Debian installation.
