Ubuntu is a widespread desktop Operating System, that uses the Linux kernel, but its server edition is getting really popular as well. The reason is that the OS is amazingly light and it'll function on almost any kind of hardware without issues, utilizing its resources to the maximum. Ubuntu is also very reliable and secure and all the Long-Term Support (LTS) editions are supported for a minimum of five years, which warrants that you should have a safe and stable software environment on your website hosting server all the time. In addition, Ubuntu has one of the biggest user communities in the world, so if you experience any problem or have any kind of question, you'll discover numerous resources on the Internet. One of the basic benefits of this OS is the fact that it contains a large number of software packages that can be easily customized in accordance with your needs and / or the requirements of the applications that you intend to run, not to mention that you will not have to pay any kind of license fees at all. In comparison, other Operating Systems are paid and their program code is not accessible, therefore it cannot be changed.

Ubuntu in VPS Servers

We supply Ubuntu with all of our VPS hosting plans and depending on what requirements your web applications have, you're able to get the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of the OS with just a couple of mouse clicks during the registration process. If you obtain your server devoid of web hosting Control Panel, the sole software which will be installed along with Ubuntu is the Apache web server software, so you'll be able to use a console in order to access the hosting server and to build a software environment of your choice. When you acquire your server with our Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you'll have an online interface with which you are able to control almost everything as quickly as you control a regular shared account and all required MySQL, FTP and e-mail server software are pre-installed, yet the root access to your server will be restricted. If you don't have much experience, or if you do not like to waste time on VPS control procedures, you are able to reap the benefits of the Managed Services upgrade, which features regular Ubuntu Operating System upgrades.

Ubuntu in Dedicated Servers

We offer Ubuntu with all of our dedicated server plans and if you need this Operating System, you're able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit release with only a click on the registration page. We offer two versions, so as to guarantee that the hosting server will match the requirements of the software that you'd like to set up. The full root access to the server will allow you to set up various other software, because the only pre-installed application will be the Apache web server. You're able to access the server safely from a console, yet if you would like to use a world wide web interface, you can set up any Control Panel which can run on an Ubuntu-powered machine. If you wish to concentrate your efforts on your content and not on server management tasks, you'll be able to add the Managed Services upgrade and we'll take care of plenty of tasks for you, which includes weekly OS updates.
