If you get a hosting machine of your own, it will work independently, so it will have its own Operating System and you'll be able to later install server side applications directly or script-driven sites through a hosting Control Panel. Though keeping the Os updated isn't always considered an absolute necessity, it can be a quite important task for several reasons. A newer OS version might have better support for certain hardware, so you may get better performance for the websites and web apps that you install. Your server shall also be more safe since updates normally include security patches which resolve small problems that may permit unauthorized people to access your content. Last, but not least, more recent script versions, which are also released for both improved security and for additional features, may need a later version of the Os in order to work correctly and with their 100 % capabilities.
Weekly OS Update in VPS Servers
If you would like to have the latest version of the Operating System running on your VPS servers, you can take advantage of the OS update service which we offer as a part of our Managed Services upgrade. Our experienced administrators shall install all patches that have been released for the Operating system you have picked for your server - Debian, Ubuntu or CentOS. They will also make sure that there are no problems after the update with any software you have installed on the VPS. The service is done every week and it is a great opportunity to have a protected and reliable hosting machine at all times in case you do not have much experience to update the Operating System yourself or you do not have time to manage the hosting machine.
Weekly OS Update in Dedicated Servers
In case you have a dedicated server from our company, we can update its Os for you as a part of our Managed Services upgrade, so if you have more important things to do or you're simply not tech-savvy and you're not certain how to do this, we can deal with this task. Our admins shall do the necessary to set up the latest update to the Os running on your hosting server without service disruptions and will make sure that your internet sites and any other apps that you have set up are functioning properly once they're done with the update. You'll be able to get the Managed Services upgrade during the signup or from your billing Cp and have your Operating system updated weekly for a more secure software environment for your websites.
