An Operating System is the software which communicates with the hardware of a PC and functions as the intermediary between all the applications and the hardware, including peripheral devices such as a printer, a computer mouse or a keyboard. When you run software, it transmits requests to the OS through an API (Application Program Interface) and the communication is done via a command line or a Graphical User Interface (GUI). Similar to a personal computer, web servers also use an Operating System which acts as a host for any 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 it is possible to install a guest OS on it and have a different system environment compared to the physical server host Operating System.

Multiple OS in Dedicated Servers

We offer three Operating Systems with our dedicated server solutions - CentOS, Ubuntu and Debian. They are all different Linux distributions and we offer them not only because they are completely free and they won't increase the price of your new server, but also because they are outstandingly stable and secure. Each of them is supported by a big community of developers, so you'll be given the option to choose from many hundreds of software packages that you can install on your server if the app that you intend to employ has certain requirements. The Operating System will also determine what web hosting Control Panel you can use because the Control Panels that we offer run on particular OSs only and because we would like to give you as much adaptability as possible, we offer several OSs and multiple Control Panels. In case you get a server with a given OS, we will change it upon request in case it turns out that you'll need alternative one. We can also keep your OS updated on a weekly basis as a part of our additional Managed Services upgrade.
