Debian is an OS which uses the Linux kernel. Though it is usually set up on personal computers, it's being used on more and more web servers as well. The reason is that it's really stable, so a server running it will not need to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being one of the most safe Operating Systems you can get, due to the fact that security patches are released within days after an issue is discovered. This is possible since thousands of skilled developers are employed by the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, in addition, they provide 24/7 support through special mailing lists and respond in 20 minutes to any question. Thus, you will obtain top-level support directly from the developers who know their own platform in depth, and not from a third-party support team. Debian is also among the Linux distributions 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 as well as any of the packages in the way you see fit. Also, you won't be required 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 offer and pick this Operating System on the order page. You'll be able to choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release, because we give you the option to select the right one, depending on the software which you'd like to install on your server once it is up and running. If you are more tech-savvy, you can get a Debian-powered VPS without a Control Panel, and you'll have full root access and you're able to control the content and the software using SSH. If you are less experienced, but you would like to use software that requires Debian, you are able to pick the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel on the order page and you will be able to manage the entire server like a standard shared hosting account. You can also take advantage of the optional Managed Services upgrade that we offer, because it comes with regular Operating System updates performed by our administrators, among other useful things.

In case you wish to have full root access, you are able to obtain a server with no Control Panel, so you'll have more freedom when it comes to what you can do with your machine using SSH. When you have less experience, yet you need Debian for a certain computer program, you'll be able to order the server with our Hepsia Control Panel. Despite the fact that the root access will be more limited, you can do anything related to your world wide web content easily using an intuitive graphical interface. If you add the optional Managed Services bundle to your dedicated server package, our system administrators will handle the weekly OS updates. They will perform various other useful tasks on your behalf as well.
