Ubuntu in VPS

We provide Ubuntu with our Linux VPS and based on what system requirements your web applications have, you can pick the 32-bit or the 64-bit edition of the OS with just a few clicks throughout the registration process. If you obtain your server without a hosting Control Panel, the only piece of software which will be set up on top of Ubuntu will be the Apache web server software, so you can use a console to gain access to the hosting server and to install a software environment that you choose. When you order your server with the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, you'll have an online interface with which you'll be able to manage almost everything just as easily as you control an ordinary shared account and all of the vital MySQL, FTP and email server software will be pre-installed, however the root access to the server is restricted. If you don't have much experience, or if you don't like to waste time on VPS administration procedures, you can take advantage of our Managed Services upgrade, that features weekly Ubuntu Operating System updates.
