Ubuntu is a widespread desktop OS, which uses the Linux kernel, but its server edition is getting very popular too. The main reason is that the operating system is amazingly light and it can function on almost any kind of hardware with no issues, utilizing its resources to the maximum. Ubuntu is also really reliable and secure and all Long-Term Support (LTS) versions are supported for at least 5 years, which warrants that you should have a protected and stable software environment on your hosting server all the time. Furthermore, Ubuntu has one of the biggest user communities around the world, which means that if you experience any kind of problem or have any question, you'll discover lots of resources on the Internet. One of the major advantages of this Operating System is the fact that it comes with thousands of software packages which can be easily customized in accordance with your needs and the needs of the apps which you would like to run, not to mention that you will not have to pay any license fees at all. In comparison, other OS's are paid and their program code isn't accessible, thus it cannot be changed.

Ubuntu in VPS Web Hosting

We provide Ubuntu with our Linux VPS web hosting services and depending on what system requirements your web apps have, you'll be able to pick the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of the Operating System with just a couple of mouse clicks throughout the order process. If you order your server devoid of web hosting Control Panel, the only piece of software which will be set up on top of Ubuntu will be the Apache web server software, thus you will be able to use a console to gain access to the website hosting server and to build a software environment that you choose. When you obtain your server with the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you'll have an online interface with which you'll be able to manage almost everything as easily as you manage an ordinary shared account and all important MySQL, FTP and e-mail server software will be pre-installed, yet the root access to your server is limited. If you do not have a lot experience, or in case you do not plan to waste time on VPS administration procedures, you are able to take full advantage of the Managed Services upgrade, which includes every week Ubuntu Operating System updates.

Ubuntu in Dedicated Servers Hosting

We provide Ubuntu with each of our dedicated server packages and if you need this OS, you can select the 32-bit or the 64-bit version with only a click on the registration page. We provide two releases, to ensure that the hosting server matches the system requirements of the software that you need to set up. The full root accessibility to the server will allow you to install any other software, due to the fact that the only pre-installed app will be the Apache web server. You're able to access the server securely from a console, however if you would like to use a world wide web interface, you can install any Control Panel which can run on an Ubuntu-powered machine. If you need to focus your efforts on your content and not on server management tasks, you are able to add the Managed Services upgrade and we'll take care of numerous tasks for you, which includes weekly Operating System updates.
