Ubuntu in VPS Hosting

If you need an Ubuntu-powered server, you're able to choose the 32-bit or the 64-bit version of the OS with each virtual private server package that we supply and everything is set up within an hour, therefore you will be able to start using the VPS right away. We supply two separate editions due to the fact that some pieces of software have certain requirements so as to operate properly. You can control an Ubuntu-powered VPS in two ways - if you order it with our custom Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you will receive a web interface and all the software which is needed for your Internet sites will be pre-installed; whereas when you order it without any Control Panel, you'll get only the OS and the Apache web server software, so that you are able to set up additional software using Secure Shell. If you decide to include our Managed Services upgrade either during the registration process or at any later time, our admins will keep track of your server and will upgrade Ubuntu routinely.

You can also select the software that will run on your machine, since we will set up only the Apache web server software, so the rest can be customized software of your choice. You'll be able to set up the latter without problems using a Secure Shell console, since you will have root-level access and you'll have full control over the hosting server.
