Ubuntu is a well known desktop OS, which uses the Linux kernel, and its server edition is getting quite popular as well. The main reason is that the OS is amazingly light and it'll function on almost any kind of hardware with no issues, utilizing its resources to the max. Ubuntu is also extremely reliable and secure and all Long-Term Support (LTS) releases are supported for a minimum of 5 years, which warrants that you will have a secure and dependable software environment on your hosting server all of the time. Also, Ubuntu has one of the largest user communities around the world, which means that if you experience any kind of problem or have any kind of question, you will discover a number of resources on the web. Among the main advantages of this Operating System is the fact that it comes with a great number of software packages which can be freely changed in accordance with your needs and the requirements of the apps that you want to run, not to mention that you will not have to pay any kind of license fees at any time. In comparison, other Operating Systems are paid and their code is not accessible, thus it cannot be changed.

Ubuntu in VPS Servers

Ubuntu is available with all our VPS plans and you can buy a VPS running it in less than 1 hour. 32-bit and 64-bit editions of the OS are available, so you'll be able to pick the one that you need if the software that you want to run on the server has specific system requirements regarding this. You can also select whether your Ubuntu-powered VPS should be installed with no Control Panel, in which case you will have full root access and you will be able to set up anything using a console; or if the Hepsia Control Panel should be set up on it, in which case you'll have a web interface and all the needed web server, MySQL, FTP, e-mail server, etcetera. software will be pre-installed. The root access in the second case will be more limited, but this type of setup is more efficient for users with less experience.
