Each desktop or notebook or server is run by an Operating System - the low-level program which interacts with the hardware, including peripheral devices such as a mouse and a printer, along with any applications that are currently installed on the system. Any program input through 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 site scripts and server-side software such as a media server. In case a virtual server is set up on a physical one, there can be two independent Operating Systems, referred to as guest OS and host OS, so you'll be able to set up a different software environment on the very same machine.

Multiple OS in VPS Web Hosting

Our virtual private server solutions come with three Linux releases that you can select from for the Operating System of your new web server - Debian, Ubuntu and CentOS. Aside from being cost-free, the OSs are extremely stable and protected and the main reason to offer you all 3 of them is to ensure that you will be able to run any kind of app that you would like, as different pieces of software have different requirements when it comes to the environment they work on. Each of the three OSs is supported by a vast community of web developers who have created thousands of software packages which you can install and use on your VPS. Based on the Operating System that you select, you will also be able to choose between three different Control Panels to manage your website hosting content. Of course, in case you decide that you need a different OS, we could always reinstall the server with it. As a paid upgrade, we also offer you weekly updates of the OS for max stability and security.

Multiple OS in Dedicated Servers Hosting

The dedicated servers we offer come with as many as three different Operating Systems since we want to offer you more flexible solutions which will allow you to install and run any kind of web software irrespective of its system requirements. The choices are CentOS, Debian and Ubuntu and these three OSs are some of the most reliable and risk-free ones, not mentioning that they don't have any license charges. All three have numerous developers who have created a huge number of software packages that you'll be able to install and use on your web hosting server. We also offer three internet hosting Control Panels and which one you can use is determined by the Operating System that you select when you sign up. If you need a different OS afterwards, it will not be a problem because we can always reinstall your machine. With our Managed Services package we could also keep your OS secure by upgrading it every week with all patches which are available for it.
