Debian
To what does the Debian OS owe its level of popularity? What has made it the Linux distribution of choice for countless server administrators?
Debian is a widespread Linux release, that's used mainly on desktop machines, still a lot of people have started using it lately as a web server Operating System as well, because of the stability and security it supplies. The latter is a direct result the fact that Debian is developed and supported by countless qualified volunteers around the globe, so that any patch that is necessary to fix a particular issue is released in a couple of days. The same community can also help with any question or problem which a user may ever experience, due to the fact that they can be contacted through email using e-mail lists and a competent response will be sent in no more than 15-20 min. The advantage here is that all of your queries will be addressed by the same people who have designed the Operating System itself and they have a detailed knowledge of how it works. As Debian is absolutely free, you won't have to pay any license fees to use it and you'll be able to 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 available for it.

Debian in Dedicated Web Hosting
Each and every
dedicated server that we supply can be installed with Debian and we will test the software environment carefully before we hand over your machine so as to make sure that it will perform perfectly. You can pick the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian version during the signup process, so that the applications which you set up can get the maximum out of your server. We can also maintain your Operating System up-to-date when you add the optional Managed Services package to your plan. In case you acquire your Debian-driven server without a hosting Control Panel, you will be able to do anything you like with the machine and you'll have full root-level access, but you will need to be more experienced, because all of the tasks will be performed through a Secure Shell console. When you acquire your Debian-driven server with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you will receive a web interface, via which you will be able to manage domains, files, databases, etcetera, and this might be the best option when you aren't very experienced, but a particular app that you intend to use requires Debian. You will have access to your Hepsia-equipped server through SSH as well, yet the things which you can do will be restricted.
