Ubuntu in VPS Servers

We provide Ubuntu with our VPS servers and based on what requirements your web apps have, you will be able to get the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of the OS with just a few clicks throughout the registration process. If you order your server with no web hosting Control Panel, the sole piece of software which will be set up in addition to Ubuntu will be the Apache web server software, so you can use a console to access the website hosting server and to set up a software environment of your choice. If you obtain your server with our Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you'll have a web interface with which you'll be able to manage almost everything as quickly as you manage an ordinary shared account and all required MySQL, FTP and email server software are pre-installed, yet the root access to your server is limited. If you do not have much experience, or if you do not want to waste time on VPS management procedures, you can reap the benefits of the Managed Services upgrade, that includes weekly Ubuntu Operating System upgrades.

Ubuntu in Dedicated Servers

We provide 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 versions, in order to ensure that the server matches the system requirements of the software that you would like to set up. The full root admission to your server allows you to set up various other software, as the only pre-installed application will be the Apache web server. You are able to access the server securely through a console, however in case you like better to use a web interface, you're free to set up any Control Panel which can run on an Ubuntu-powered machine. If you want to focus your efforts on the content and not on server management tasks, you're able to add our Managed Services upgrade and we'll handle various tasks for you, among them weekly OS updates.
