Linux is an OS, which isn't that common for desktop machines, but is one of the most widely used OSs for servers. It is absolutely free, so you will not need to pay any license charges as part of your hosting payments. Linux is additionally regarded as the most secure OS available and thanks to the permissions which files have and also the file types that can be run, virus files that could infect a regular computer shall simply not be executed on a Linux-based server. Also, the Operating System is free, so it can easily be modified with no limitations, as a way to satisfy the needs of the hosting provider and their customers. This suggests that unnecessary software packages may be removed to make the Operating system lighter and faster, which could directly contribute to much better hosting server performance. Many Linux machines have the Apache web server set up on them, due to the fact that this application is also absolutely free, fast and secure. It is the most commonly used web server around and is part of the LAMP bundle that a great many script applications, like Joomla™ and WordPress, require. LAMP is an abbreviation for Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.
Stable Linux with Apache in Shared Web Hosting
All shared web hosting accounts bought through our company are created on highly effective machines that run Linux, so you can take full advantage of our speedy and secure hosting services irrespective of the plan that you’ve selected during the signup process.

The consequence of using this sort of a setup with Linux-powered servers is practically no downtime, so you can get the absolute maximum out of your sites. Aside from that, we use the Apache web server, because this software gives us the swiftness and overall flexibility necessary to provide a premium hosting service on our customized cloud platform. Any of our shared hosting plans will allow you to run almost any type of website developed with almost any web programming language – PHP, Perl, Python, JavaScript, HTML, etc.
Stable Linux with Apache in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server accounts are set up on a cutting-edge custom platform. An individual group of web servers handles each individual service - databases, e-mail messages, files, etcetera., and because we highly appreciate the advantages of a custom-made, protected and stable Operating System, all of the machines that comprise the groups run Linux. The OS allows us to make the critical modifications, not to mention the raised speed, due to the fact just one type of process runs on the server, unlike the conventional web hosting platform made available from most companies where everything runs on one hosting server. In addition, we use the Apache web server too. We have evaluated its capabilities throughout the years, so we have confirmed that it can give us as a provider and you as a client the wanted speed and convenience for the best achievable Internet site performance.
