Ubuntu in VPS Web Hosting

When you need an Ubuntu-powered server, you'll be able to select the 32-bit or the 64-bit version of the Operating System with each and every virtual private server package that we supply and everything will be set up within 60 minutes, so you're able to start using the VPS right away. We provide two different versions since some pieces of software have certain requirements so as to work effectively. You will be able to control an Ubuntu-powered VPS in 2 ways - when you order it with our custom-built Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you will receive a web interface and the software which is needed for your websites will be pre-installed; while if you order it without any Control Panel, you will get only the OS and the Apache web server software, which means that you'll be able to set up other software employing Secure Shell. When you decide to add the Managed Services upgrade either during the registration process or at any later time, our admins will keep track of your hosting server and will upgrade Ubuntu routinely.
