Ubuntu in VPS Servers

If you need an Ubuntu-powered hosting server, you can choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of the Operating System with each VPS server package that we provide and everything will be set up within 1 hour, which means that you are able to start using the VPS without delay. We supply two different versions since certain programs have specific requirements in order to operate effectively. You will be able to control an Ubuntu-powered VPS in two ways - if you order it with our custom-made Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you'll get a world wide web interface and all the software that is needed for your websites will be pre-installed; while when you order it devoid of Control Panel, you'll get just the Operating System and the Apache web server software, which means that you are able to install additional software using Secure Shell. When you decide to include our Managed Services upgrade either throughout the signup process or at any later time, our admins will keep close track of your hosting server and will update Ubuntu on a regular basis.

Ubuntu in Dedicated Servers

If the apps that you want to run require Ubuntu and plenty of resources, you should select one of our dedicated servers and add this Operating System to your order with a single click. You'll be able to select between the 32-bit and the 64-bit release of the OS, according to which release your applications need in order to work properly and to get the most of the server hardware. Since you will have full root access, you'll have full control over the software environment on your machine and you'll be able to install anything you would like. The Ubuntu-powered server doesn't contain a hosting Control Panel, which means that you can manage your content from a Secure Shell console, yet if you want, you can set up a third-party Control Panel and use a graphical interface to take care of your Internet sites. If you do not want to lose time controlling the server, you can take advantage of the Managed Services package, which includes numerous tasks done by our system administrators on your behalf. The package comes with regular updates of your Ubuntu OS as well.
