Ubuntu in VPS Servers
We supply Ubuntu with all our VPS servers and based on what system requirements your web apps have, you are able to get the 32-bit or the 64-bit edition of the OS with only a few clicks during the registration process. When you order your server devoid of website hosting Control Panel, the only software which will be set up along with Ubuntu will be the Apache web server software, which means that you're able to use a console to access the hosting server and to install a software environment that you choose. When you get your server with our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you will have an online interface with which you will be able to manage almost everything just as easily as you manage a regular shared account and all of the important MySQL, FTP and e-mail server software will be pre-installed, yet the root access to the server is limited. When you don't have much experience, or in case you do not like to waste time on VPS supervision procedures, you'll be able to reap the benefits of our Managed Services upgrade, which features every week Ubuntu Operating System updates.
Ubuntu in Dedicated Servers
You can acquire Ubuntu with each of our dedicated server packages, since we supply 32-bit and 64-bit releases of this Operating System. Thus, you will be able to select the more appropriate of the two, based on the type of apps which you need to set up and run and on the system requirements they have about the Operating System. You will have root-level access to the server, which will give you full control of the software environment. We will set up just the Apache web server software, so you are able to add anything else you may need, even when it is not related directly to Internet sites, such as a VOIP server, for example. You are able to control everything through a console, however if you want, you may also set up a hosting Control Panel, when it supports Ubuntu. If you order the optional Managed Services bundle, we will maintain your Operating System up-to-date every week and will ensure that you have the most recent software packages for a well-balanced and safe server environment.
