Ubuntu
Get to know more about Ubuntu. School yourself on the way in which this simple Linux-based OS has taken the open-source computing world by force. Understand the cause for its recognition.
Ubuntu is a widely used desktop Operating System, that uses the Linux kernel, and its server version is getting pretty popular as well. The main reason is the fact that the operating system is really light and it can run on almost any kind of hardware with no issues, utilizing its resources to the fullest. Ubuntu is also pretty reliable and secure and all the Long-Term Support (LTS) releases are supported for at least 5 years, which warrants that you will have a safe and dependable software environment on your web hosting server all of the time. Also, Ubuntu has one of the biggest user communities worldwide, so if you experience any difficulty or have any kind of question, you'll discover a number of resources online. One of the main benefits of this OS is the fact that it comes with tens of thousands of software packages that can be easily adjusted according to your needs and the requirements of the applications that you intend to run, not to mention that you won't have to pay any license fees at any time. In contrast, other OS's are paid and their code is not accessible, which means that it can't be changed.

Ubuntu in VPS Web Hosting
We offer Ubuntu with our
Linux VPS web hosting and based on what requirements your web apps have, you will be able to choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of the OS with only a few mouse clicks throughout the registration process. If you order your server without a web hosting Control Panel, the only software which will be set up on top of Ubuntu will be the Apache web server software, so you can use a console to gain access to the server and to build a software environment that you choose. When you get your server with the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, you'll have an online interface with which you are able to control almost everything as easily as you manage an ordinary shared account and all of the important MySQL, FTP and email server software are pre-installed, but the root access to the server is limited. If you don't have a lot of experience, or in case you don't plan to waste time on VPS supervision procedures, you can take advantage of the Managed Services upgrade, that features regular Ubuntu Operating System upgrades.
