Debian
To what does the Debian OS owe its level of popularity? What has made it the Linux distribution of choice for a lot of server administrators?
Debian is a popular Linux release, that is used primarily on desktop computers, however lots of people have started using it lately as a web server OS too, because of the stability and security it offers. The latter is a direct result the fact that Debian is developed and supported by numerous qualified volunteers all around the world, so any patch which is required to fix a particular issue is released in a couple of days. The very same community will also help with any question or problem that a user may ever encounter, due to the fact that they can be contacted via e-mail using mailing lists and a competent response will be sent in around 15-20 min. The advantage here is that all of your questions will be replied by the same people who have made the Operating System itself and they have a detailed knowledge of how it functions. As Debian is free, you won't need 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 and the 30.000+ software packages which are readily available for it.

Debian in Dedicated Hosting
Each
dedicated server that we supply can be set up with Debian and we will test the software environment in depth before we hand over the machine to ensure that it will perform properly. You're able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit Debian release during the sign-up process, so the applications which you set up will be able to get the maximum out of your server. We will also keep your Operating System up-to-date if you add the optional Managed Services package to your plan. In case you get your Debian-driven server without a website hosting Control Panel, you will be able to do anything you want with your machine and you will have full root-level access, yet you'll have to be more skillful, since 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 can manage domains, files, databases, and many others, and this might be the best option if you are not very experienced, but a certain app which you intend to use requires Debian. You have access to your Hepsia-equipped server via SSH too, but the things which you are able to do will be restricted.
