Ubuntu is a well-liked desktop OS, that uses the Linux kernel, and its server version is getting really popular too. The main reason is that the OS is really light and it will run on almost any kind of hardware without issues, utilizing its resources to the maximum. Ubuntu is also extremely 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 secure and dependable software environment on your website hosting server all of the time. In addition, Ubuntu has one of the largest user communities in the world, so if you experience any difficulty or have any kind of question, you will discover a number of resources on the web. Among the main advantages of this OS is that it comes with thousands of software packages that can be freely modified according to your needs and the requirements of the apps that you'd like to run, not to mention that you won't have to pay any license fees any time. In comparison, other OS's are paid and their code isn't accessible, thus it cannot be changed.

Ubuntu in Dedicated Servers

We supply Ubuntu with our dedicated server plans and if you need this Operating System, you are able to pick the 32-bit or the 64-bit edition with only a click on the order page. We provide two releases, to make sure that the server will match the requirements of the software that you would like to set up. The full root accessibility to your server allows you to set up various other software, since the only pre-installed app is the Apache web server. You are able to access the server safely using a console, but if you like better to use an online interface, you can install any Control Panel that can function on an Ubuntu-powered machine. If you wish to concentrate your efforts on the content and not on server management tasks, you're able to add the Managed Services upgrade and we'll handle a number of tasks for you, including weekly OS updates.
