Linux is an OS, that is not that popular for desktop machines, but is amongst the most popular OSs for web servers. It is 100 % free, so you will not need to pay any license fees as part of your hosting payments. Linux is furthermore considered to be the most reliable OS around and thanks to the permissions which files have along with the file types that can be run, virus files that can easily infect an average computer system shall simply not be executed on a Linux-based server. In addition, the OS is totally free, so it can easily be modified with no limitations, so that it will meet the needs of the website hosting provider and their clients. This also implies that unneeded software packages may be removed to make the Operating system lighter and swifter, that can directly result in far better server performance. Many Linux machines have the Apache web server set up on them, because this software is also absolutely free, fast and secure. It is the most widely used web server out there and is part of the LAMP bundle that a lot of script applications, like Joomla and WordPress, need. LAMP is an abbreviation for Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.

Stable Linux with Apache in Web Hosting

All the servers which are part of our revolutionary cloud hosting platform run Linux in order to guarantee their fast and reliable operation, which will subsequently give you better overall website performance. That's valid for every site that you host in a web hosting account with our company. Every part of the web hosting service (e-mail messages, databases, files) will be taken care of by its own cluster of servers, so only one type of processes will run on a particular web server, which will contribute to the rapid loading speed of your sites even more. You can use HTML, Perl, Python, JavaScript and any other web development language for your websites, since they all can run on a Linux hosting server. In addition we use the Apache web server, for the reason that our experience throughout the years has proven that it is probably the best software of its kind.
