Debian
To what does the Debian OS owe its level of popularity? What has made it the Linux distribution of choice for a large number of server admins?
Debian is a Linux distribution, that is widespread for desktop machines, but it's been gaining popularity as a server Operating System during the last couple of years as well. It's very stable and protected, due to the fact that fixes are released in a couple of days after a problem is discovered. Debian has a huge support community, so when you have any questions or problems with the OS or with any of the 30,000+ packages it includes, you will be able to contact the developers straight away via e-mail using special mailing lists and receive a response within 15-20 minutes. The Debian community offers the top level of support possible, as all your questions will be handled by exactly the same people that built Debian in the first place, so they have an in-depth knowledge of how their system works. As the Operating System is free to use and distribute, no license charges will be added to your web hosting fees and you can change the code files and any additional software which you install without any restrictions, in order to optimize the software environment for your sites. Furthermore, Debian performs very well on any hardware, as it is light and effective and does not require a lot of memory.

Debian in VPS Web Hosting
There are several Operating Systems that we supply with our
Linux VPS web hosting packages and Debian is among them, therefore when you'd like to have a server with this OS, you'll be able to obtain one in under an hour. We also offer 32-bit and 64-bit versions 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 that you intend to install on the server. Controlling the content on the server can be done in two ways, based on the choice you make on the order page. With no Control Panel, you can do everything on your Debian-equipped server through Secure Shell, as you'll have root-level access, whereas with the Hepsia Control Panel, the root access will have certain restrictions, but you can do everything from your browser using a handy web interface, even if you are not very experienced. With the optional Managed Services package that we supply, we will also keep your Debian OS up to date weekly, saving you effort and time.

Debian in Dedicated Servers Hosting
32-bit and 64-bit releases of Debian are available on our
dedicated server order page and you can choose all of them with only a mouse click for your new machine, depending on what software environment the applications which you plan to use require for optimal performance. You may also choose whether our Hepsia Control Panel should be installed on the server or whether it should come with no Control Panel at all. The first option is made for less experienced users who want a Debian-powered server, yet wish to control it like a shared website hosting account, whereas the second option is good for more experienced users who want to have more control, because ‘no Control Panel' means only Debian and the Apache web server software, but no other software installed on the server whatsoever. We can also save your time and effort with the Managed Services upgrade, because it features routine Operating System updates, so that you will have a secure and stable Debian installation.
