Ubuntu in VPS Servers

Ubuntu is available with all of our VPS plans and you can buy a VPS running it in less than sixty minutes. 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS are available, so you can select the one that you need when the software that you want to run on your web hosting server has specific system requirements regarding this. You may also select if your Ubuntu-powered VPS should be installed with no Control Panel, in which case you'll have full root access and you'll be able to set up anything using a console; or if the Hepsia Control Panel should be set up on it, in which case you'll have a web interface and all of the needed web server, MySQL, FTP, mail server, etc. software is pre-installed. The root access in the second case will be more limited, but this type of setup is more suitable for users with less experience. We will also maintain your Ubuntu up-to-date on a regular basis when you add our Managed Services upgrade. You will be able to do this during the VPS order process or at any later time using your billing Control Panel.
