Ubuntu is a preferred desktop OS, that uses the Linux kernel, but its server release is getting really popular as well. The main reason is the fact that the OS is extremely light and it will function on almost any kind of hardware with no issues, utilizing its resources to the maximum. Ubuntu is also extremely reliable and secure and all the Long-Term Support (LTS) versions are supported for a minimum of 5 years, which warrants that you should have a protected and stable software environment on your server all of the time. In addition, Ubuntu has one of the biggest user communities around the world, which means that if you experience any problem or have any kind of question, you'll find lots of resources on the Internet. One of the basic advantages of this Operating System is the fact that it has a large number of software packages that can be easily customized according to your needs and the needs of the apps that you need to run, not to mention that you won't have to pay any license fees at any time. In comparison, other Operating Systems are paid and their code is not accessible, therefore it can't be changed.

Ubuntu in VPS

When you need an Ubuntu-powered hosting server, you are able to choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of the OS with each virtual private server package that we offer and everything is set up within 60 minutes, which means that you can start using the VPS without delay. We offer two different editions since some pieces of software have specific requirements to work effectively. You can control an Ubuntu-powered VPS in two ways - if you order it with our in-house built Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you'll get an online interface and all the software that is necessary for your websites will be pre-installed; while if you order it without any Control Panel, you will receive just the OS and the Apache web server software, which means that you'll be able to set up additional software through Secure Shell. When you choose to add the Managed Services upgrade either throughout the signup process or at any later time, our admins will keep track of your hosting server and will update Ubuntu on a regular basis.

Ubuntu in Dedicated Hosting

We supply Ubuntu with our dedicated server packages and if you need this Operating System, you're able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit release with just a click on the order page. We provide two editions, so as to guarantee that the server will meet the system requirements of the software that you'd like to install. The full root admission to the server allows you to set up any other software, due to the fact that the only pre-installed application is the Apache web server. You'll be able to access the server safely from a console, but in case you prefer to use a web interface, you can install any Control Panel that can function on an Ubuntu-powered machine. If you want to concentrate your efforts on your content and not on server management tasks, you're able to add our Managed Services upgrade and we will handle a number of tasks for you, which includes once a week Operating System updates.
