Linux is among the most widely used Operating Systems for servers. There are a number of different distributions which use the exact same core, but the majority have several things in common - they are 100 % free to use, which minimizes the overall cost of the website hosting service due to the fact that license fees won't be included in what you will have to pay; they're quite simple to maintain; and last, but not least, they're a lot more protected compared with competitor Operating Systems, as random files, particularly virus-infected ones, just can't be executed on the web server. That way, you can enjoy a protected service and spend the time developing and advertising your websites, not bothering with basic safety issues. A lot of Linux-based machines use the Apache server to manage the HTTP traffic, as this software is really quick and is also simple to maintain and modify depending on the needs of the web hosting provider. A Linux server with Apache is the most suitable software environment for your sites and it's not at all a coincidence that lots of popular script-driven apps available on the market require LAMP, which refers to Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.

Stable Linux with Apache in Semi-dedicated Servers

We have decided to use Linux on our machines too, because no other OS can match its overall flexibility and without it, we would not have had the means to produce our custom website hosting platform where all semi-dedicated server accounts are created. The platform consists of big groups of servers, each managing particular part of the website hosting service - databases, email messages, files, the CP, etc. The end result of blending this custom setup with Linux is a really reliable, protected and speedy service with zero downtime. Furthermore, the web access is managed by Apache, simply because it is remarkably customizable and supports a lot of modules and web programming languages such as PHP, Perl, Python, HTML, etcetera. Our semi-dedicated server solutions will offer you all the speed and stability that you would like for your sites and we have made a whole lot of software tweaks to make certain we shall meet our uptime guarantee.
