Linux is a well-known OS, which is widely used for web servers, due to the fact it has a range of advantages over other Operating Systems. It's looked upon as the most secure OS nowadays and because of the way it runs, corrupted files will simply not work. Due to the fact Linux is 100 free and easy to personalize, not to mention that it is very quick and light with regard to the system resources it requires. LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) is the software environment which some of the most popular script apps require – WordPress, Moodle, Joomla™, etc. The LAMP configuration is the most traditionally used one across the world, because it's stable and easy to maintain.
Stable Linux with Apache in Cloud Hosting
All of the web servers that are an element of our revolutionary cloud web hosting platform run Linux in order to guarantee their fast and stable operation, that will in turn result in much better overall website performance. This is valid for each and every site that you host in a cloud hosting account with us. Every single part of the website hosting service (email messages, databases, files) will be taken care of by its own cluster of web servers, so just one type of processes will run on a given machine, that will contribute to the fast loading speed of your sites even more. You can use HTML, Python, Perl, JavaScript and just about any other web development language for your sites, since they all can run on a Linux web server. In addition we use the Apache web server, considering that our experience through the years has shown that this is probably the perfect piece of software of its kind.
Stable Linux with Apache in Semi-dedicated Servers
We have decided to use Linux on our web servers too, because no other OS can match its versatility and without it, we would not have had the means to produce our custom hosting platform in which all semi-dedicated server accounts are created. The platform incorporates large groups of web servers, each dealing with a specific part of the hosting service - databases, e-mails, files, the Control Panel, and so forth. The consequence of blending this custom setup with Linux is an incredibly stable, protected and fast service with virtually no downtime. Also, the web access is addressed by Apache, as it is extremely customizable and supports a considerable amount of modules and web programming languages which include PHP, Perl, Python, HTML, etc. Our semi-dedicated server plans will give you all the speed and security that you would like for your sites and we have made a lot of software tweaks to make sure that we will fulfill our uptime guarantee.
