Multiple OS
What number of server Operating Systems can you pick from?
An Operating System is the software that communicates with the hardware of a computer system and serves as the intermediary between the installed applications and the hardware, which includes peripheral devices such as a printer, a computer mouse or a keyboard. When you run an app, it sends requests to the OS using an API (Application Program Interface) and the interaction is done via a command line or a Graphical User Interface (GUI). A lot like a personal computer, web servers also use an Operating System that acts as a host for any software installed on them, including script apps or server-side software such as a flash server, a VOIP server, and many others. A virtual machine can be set up on a physical one, so you will be able to install a guest OS on it and have a different system environment in contrast to the physical server host OS.

Multiple OS in VPS Hosting
In case you decide to go for one of our
virtual private server packages, you will be able to pick one of the three Linux releases which we supply for the OS of the servers - CentOS, Ubuntu and Debian. They are among the most popular and most reliable server OSs available on the market and we offer them in order to give you a choice for the software environment of your machine if you wish to install some app with precise requirements with regards to the packages that need to be present on the server. We also offer three internet hosting Control Panels and which one of them you could use will depend on the OS that you have chosen. We leave the possibility to change the server Operating System open, so if you want to use an application that requires an OS different from the one you have, we can always reinstall the VPS. In addition, we can keep the OS up-to-date weekly by installing all the security updates that may be available.

Multiple OS in Dedicated Web Hosting
The
dedicated server packages that we offer come with three different Operating Systems to choose from. They are all Linux release - Ubuntu, CentOS and Debian, and not only do they have no license fees, but they’re also regarded as the most dependable and safe OSs. We supply three different ones for the reason that each one of them is backed by a different community. The packages that you can add on your server are different and this could matter in case you need to install some piece of software with specific requirements about the hosting environment. In this light, the hosting Control Panel that you can select for the dedicated server also depends on the OS that you will pick. You can pick any of the three Operating Systems throughout the order procedure, yet if needed, we can always set up the server anew with a different one upon your request. As an additional service that you may add to the package at any time, we can update your OS regularly to keep it as secure as possible.
