Ubuntu is available with all our VPS and you can get a VPS running it in less than one hour. 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS are available, which means that you are able to pick the one that you need if the software that you wish to run on the website hosting server has specific system requirements in this regard. You can also select whether your Ubuntu-powered VPS should be installed without a Control Panel, in which case you will have full root access and you will be able to set up anything through a console; or if the Hepsia Control Panel should be set up on it, in which case you will have a web interface and all the needed web server, MySQL, FTP, e-mail server, etcetera. software will be pre-installed. The root access in the second case will be more restricted, but such a installation is more efficient for users with less experience. We will also keep your Ubuntu up-to-date regularly when you add the 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.
