Linux is one of the frequently used Operating Systems for servers. There are many different distributions that use the same core, but the majority have a few things in common - they're absolutely free to use, which decreases the overall cost of the website hosting service due to the fact that license fees will not be included in what you have to pay; they are quite simple to take care of; and last, but not least, they are much more secure as compared with competitor OSs, because random files, particularly virus-infected ones, simply cannot be executed on the server. Thus, you’ll be able to enjoy a secure service and spend the time creating and advertising your websites, not worrying about basic safety problems. Many Linux-based machines use the Apache server to deal with the HTTP traffic, as this piece of software is extremely fast and is also effortless to maintain and modify as per the needs of the web hosting provider. A Linux web server with Apache is the most suitable software environment for your sites and it's not at all a coincidence that many popular script-driven apps available on the market require LAMP, which refers to Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.
Stable Linux with Apache in Cloud Web Hosting
All of the web servers which are a part of our progressive cloud website hosting platform run Linux in order to guarantee their fast and reliable operation, which will consequently give you much better overall site functionality. That's valid for every site that you host in a cloud web hosting account with us. Each and every part of the website hosting service (e-mail messages, databases, files) shall be handled by its own cluster of machines, so only 1 type of processes will run on a certain server, which will contribute to the rapid loading speed of your Internet sites even more. You may use HTML, PHP, JavaScript, Python, Perl and almost any other web development language for your Internet sites, since they all can run on a Linux server. We use the Apache web server, considering that our experience through the years indicates that it is probably the very best software of its type.
Stable Linux with Apache in Semi-dedicated Hosting
We have decided to use Linux on our servers too, due to the fact that no other OS can match its overall flexibility and without it, we wouldn't have had the chance to produce our custom hosting platform where all semi-dedicated server accounts are set up. The platform incorporates significant groups of servers, each one dealing with a particular part of the hosting service - databases, email messages, files, the Control Panel, and so forth. The effect of combining this custom setup with Linux is an incredibly stable, protected and fast service with basically no downtime. What's more, the web access is managed by Apache, due to the fact that it is highly customizable and supports a considerable amount of modules and web programming languages like PHP, Perl, Python, HTML, and so on. Our semi-dedicated server solutions will give you all the speed and dependability you want for your websites and we have made many software improvements to make sure that we'll meet our uptime guarantee.
