Ubuntu is a popular desktop Operating System, that uses the Linux kernel, and its server edition is getting really popular as well. The reason is the fact that the operating system is extremely light and it'll function on almost any hardware without issues, utilizing its resources to the max. Ubuntu is also extremely reliable and secure and all the Long-Term Support (LTS) versions are supported for a minimum of 5 years, which guarantees that you should have a secure and dependable software environment on your web hosting server all the time. In addition, Ubuntu has one of the biggest user communities worldwide, so if you experience any difficulty or have any question, you will find numerous resources on the web. Among the main benefits of this Operating System is that it comes with a large number of software packages that can be easily customized according to your needs as well as the requirements of the apps that you wish to run, not to mention that you won't have to pay any kind of license fees at any time. In contrast, other OS's are paid and their code is not accessible, which means that it cannot be changed.

Ubuntu in Dedicated Servers

Ubuntu is one of the OS options that you can find on our order page in case you decide to obtain one of our Linux dedicated servers. We will set up the 32-bit or the 64-bit edition, so as to meet the system requirements of the applications which you'd like to install on the server. You may also select the software which will run on your machine, since we will set up only the Apache web server software, so everything else can be customized software of your choice. You'll be able to install the latter without any problems through a Secure Shell console, as you'll get root-level access and you will have full control over your server. You can set up a hosting Control Panel as well and control some things using a graphical interface, as long as it can run on an Ubuntu-driven machine. To make things simpler for you, we also offer a Managed Services upgrade, which, among other things, features OS upgrades.
