Ubuntu is a preferred desktop OS, which uses the Linux kernel, but its server edition is getting pretty popular too. The reason is 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 maximum. Ubuntu is also very reliable and secure and all Long-Term Support (LTS) versions are supported for a minimum of 5 years, which guarantees that you will have a risk-free and dependable software environment on your 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 will find a number of resources on the Internet. Among the major benefits of this OS is the fact that it features thousands of software packages that can be easily modified in accordance with your needs and the needs of the apps which you want to run, not to mention that you will not have to pay any kind of license fees at all. In comparison, other OS's are paid and their code isn't accessible, therefore it cannot be changed.

Ubuntu in Dedicated Hosting

You'll be able to obtain Ubuntu with all of our dedicated server plans, since we supply 32-bit and 64-bit versions of this Operating System. This way, you'll be able to choose the more appropriate of them, depending on the type of apps which you would like 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 provide you with full control of the software environment. We will install only the Apache web server software, so you can add anything else you may need, even when it's not related directly to Internet sites, such as a VOIP server, for instance. You are able to manage everything using a console, yet if you want, you may also set up a web hosting Control Panel, when it's compatible with Ubuntu. If you order the optional Managed Services bundle, we'll maintain your Operating System up-to-date every week and will make sure that you have the newest software packages for a stable and risk-free server environment.
