Ubuntu is a preferred desktop OS, that uses the Linux kernel, but its server release is getting pretty popular as well. The main reason is the fact that the operating system is very light and it will function on almost any hardware with no issues, utilizing its resources to the maximum. Ubuntu is also very reliable and secure and all the Long-Term Support (LTS) versions are supported for a minimum of five years, which guarantees that you should have a protected and stable software environment on your server all the time. Furthermore, Ubuntu has one of the largest user communities globally, which means that if you experience any difficulty or have any kind of question, you will find numerous resources online. One of the key benefits of this OS is the fact that it has numerous software packages that can be freely changed according to your needs and / or the requirements of the apps which you need to run, not to mention that you will not have to pay any license fees at all. In contrast, other Operating Systems are paid and their code isn't accessible, which means that it cannot be changed.

Ubuntu in VPS Web Hosting

We provide Ubuntu with all our Linux VPS web hosting and based on what system requirements your web applications have, you will be able to choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit edition of the OS with just a couple of mouse clicks throughout the order process. When you order your server devoid of website hosting Control Panel, the sole piece of software that will be set up on top of Ubuntu is the Apache web server software, which means that you're able to use a console to access the website hosting server and to set up a software environment of your choice. If you get your server with our Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you'll have an online interface with which you're able to manage almost everything as easily as you control an ordinary shared account and all of the required MySQL, FTP and email server software will be pre-installed, but the root access to the server is restricted. If you do not have a lot experience, or if you don't plan to waste time on VPS supervision procedures, you're able to take full advantage of the Managed Services upgrade, which features weekly Ubuntu Operating System updates.

Ubuntu in Dedicated Servers Hosting

We supply Ubuntu with all of our dedicated server packages and if you need this OS, you are able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit edition with just a click on the registration page. We offer two releases, so as to guarantee that the hosting server will meet the requirements of the software that you wish to set up. The full root access to the server will help you set up any other software, since the only pre-installed app will be the Apache web server. You will be able to access the server safely from a console, yet if you would like to use an online interface, you can set up any Control Panel that can run on an Ubuntu-powered machine. If you would like to focus your efforts on the content and not on server management tasks, you are able to add the Managed Services upgrade and we will take care of a number of tasks for you, which includes weekly Operating System upgrades.
