Ubuntu is a widespread desktop OS, which uses the Linux kernel, but its server release is getting quite popular as well. The reason is the fact that the OS is amazingly light and it can run on almost any hardware without any issues, utilizing its resources to the maximum. Ubuntu is also really reliable and secure and all of the Long-Term Support (LTS) releases are supported for a minimum of five years, which warrants that you should have a risk-free and dependable software environment on your hosting server all the time. Also, Ubuntu has one of the biggest user communities around the world, so if you experience any difficulty or have any kind of question, you'll discover plenty of resources on the web. One of the major benefits of this Operating System is the fact that it features numerous software packages that can be easily changed in accordance with your needs as well as the needs of the apps which you'd like to run, not to mention that you won't have to pay any license fees at any time. In comparison, other OS's are paid and their program code isn't accessible, therefore it can't be changed.

Ubuntu in Dedicated Servers

If the apps that you need to run require Ubuntu and a lot of system resources, you can opt for one of our dedicated servers and add this OS to your order with a single click. You are able to choose between the 32-bit and the 64-bit version of your Operating System, based on which release your apps need to function properly and to get the most of the server hardware. Due to the fact that you'll have full root access, you will have full control over the software environment on your machine and you'll be able to set up anything you'd like. The Ubuntu-powered server does not include a hosting Control Panel, which means that you can manage your content through a Secure Shell console, yet if you'd like, you can install a third-party Control Panel and use a graphical interface to control your Internet sites. If you do not want to lose time managing your server, you can employ our Managed Services package, that features many tasks performed by our system administrators on your behalf. The upgrade features routine updates of your Ubuntu Operating System as well.
