Multiple OS
Learn how you could transform your server from the very beginning with a selection of Multiple Operating Systems.
An Operating System is the software that communicates with the hardware of a PC and serves as the intermediary between apps and the hardware, including peripherals such as a printer, a mouse or a keyboard. When you run software, it transfers requests to the OS using an API (Application Program Interface) and the communication is done through a command line or a Graphical User Interface (GUI). A lot like a personal computer, hosting servers also have an Operating System which serves as a host for all the software installed on them, which includes script applications or server-side software such as a flash server, a VOIP server, etcetera. A virtual machine can be generated on a physical one, so you will be able to install a guest OS on it and have a different system environment compared to the physical server host OS.

Multiple OS in VPS Servers
Our
VPS server packages feature three Linux releases which you can select from for the Operating System of your new web server - Debian, Ubuntu and CentOS. Apart from being 100 % free, the OSs are extremely stable and secure and the key reason to offer you all three of them is to make sure that you will be able to run each app that you would like, as different pieces of software could have different requirements about the environment they work on. Each of the three OSs is backed by a large community of web developers who have developed a large number of software packages that you can install and use on your VPS. Depending on the Operating System that you choose, you will also be able to choose between three different Control Panels to take care of your web hosting content. Of course, if you decide that you need a different OS, we could always re-install the server with it. As a paid upgrade, we also offer you weekly updates of the Operating System for max stability and security.
