Multiple OS

Each PC or server is run by an Operating System - the low-level program which interacts with the computer hardware, including peripheral devices such as a mouse and a printer, and any apps that are present on your system. Any program input using a command line or a Graphical User Interface (GUI) is processed by sending an Application Program Interface (API) request to the OS. On a server, each and every application runs within the parameters defined by the OS as well - priority, physical memory, processing time, etc. This is valid for both standard website scripts and server-side software like a media server. In case a virtual server is set up on a physical one, there can be two independent Operating Systems, called guest OS and host OS, which means that you'll be able to set up a different software environment on a single machine.

Multiple OS in VPS

Our virtual private server solutions include three Linux distributions that you could pick from for the Operating System of your new hosting server - Debian, Ubuntu and CentOS. Apart from being absolutely free, the OSs are really stable and safe and the reason to offer the three of them is to ensure that you'll be able to run any kind of app that you'd like, since different pieces of software could have different requirements in terms of the environment they work on. Each one of the three OSs is supported by a huge community of web developers who have produced thousands of software packages which you can set up and use on your VPS. In accordance with the Operating System which you select, you will also be able to select between 3 different Control Panels to control your website hosting content. Needless to say, in case you decide that you need another OS, we can always reinstall the server with it. As an optional upgrade, we also provide weekly updates of the Operating System for max stability and security.

Multiple OS in Dedicated Hosting

The dedicated server solutions that we offer come with three different Operating Systems to pick from. They are all Linux distributions - Ubuntu, CentOS and Debian, and not only do they have no license charges, but they’re also considered to be among the most stable and risk-free OSs. We offer three different ones because each of them is supported by a separate community. The packages that you could add on your server are different and this could matter in case you want to install some piece of software with specific requirements regarding the hosting environment. In this light, the web hosting Control Panel that you can select for the dedicated server also depends on the OS that you will select. You can choose any of the three Operating Systems throughout the order process, yet if necessary, we can always set up the server anew with a different one upon your request. As an additional service that you may add to the package at any time, we can update your OS regularly to keep it as secure as possible.
