Multiple OS
Discover how you can transform your server from the very beginning with a selection of Multiple Operating Systems.
An Operating System is the software that interacts with the hardware of a computer and serves as the intermediary between all the applications and the hardware, which includes peripheral devices such as a printer, a mouse or a keyboard. When you run an application, it transmits requests to the OS using an API (Application Program Interface) and the contact is done through a command line or a Graphical User Interface (GUI). Just like a personal computer, hosting servers also have an Operating System which serves as a host for all of the software installed on them, which includes script applications 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'll be able to install a guest OS on it and have a different system environment in contrast with the physical server host OS.
Multiple OS in Dedicated Web Hosting
The dedicated servers that we offer come with as many as 3 different Operating Systems since we want to offer you more flexible packages which will enable you to install and run any type of web software irrespective of its system requirements. Your options are CentOS, Debian and Ubuntu and these three OSs are some of the most dependable and secure ones, not mentioning that they don't have any license fees. All three have lots of developers that have created countless software packages that you could install and use on your web server. We also offer three web hosting Control Panels and which one you can use depends on the Operating System that you select when you register. In case you need a different OS later, it won't be a problem as we can always reinstall your server. With our Managed Services package we can also keep your OS secure by updating it on a weekly basis with any patches that are available for it.
