Debian VPS hosting

Debian is a free, open-source, and community-driven operating system (OS), known for its security, reliability, and wide software support.

Meanwhile, VPS hosting gives you a virtual server with dedicated resources and complete freedom. With full root access, you can install any programs you want and customize them as you want.

So, Debian VPS is a specialized VPS hosting that comes with pre-installed Debian for easier server setup. In fact, the whole setup process will only take a few minutes. 

With Hostinger VPS hosting, you will also get advanced security tools – DDoS protection, a built-in firewall and traffic filter, and a malware scanner that can detect and remove malicious files automatically.

As Debian is an open-source system, it is absolutely free to install. However, you will need to pay for your hosting needs. 

Our KVM 1 plan, starting at US$ 4.99/month, comes with 1 vCPU core, 4 GB of RAM, 50 GB of NVMe SSD disk space, and 4 TB of bandwidth – perfect for starting to develop your online project.

Once it grows, you can update your VPS hosting plan anytime. 

First, you will need to find your SSH details. To do so, open your hPanel, go to the VPS dashboard, and select the server to which you want to connect. Then, depending on the operating system you use on your computer, you will have to either open the Terminal browser or run an SSH client.

For Terminal, simply copy the code with SSH root from your hPanel. 

For more detailed instructions, follow our quick guide on how to connect to your VPS via SSH. 

CentOS and Debian are free, open-source operating systems with active communities. However, their target audiences slightly differ.

CentOS is aimed at enterprises that need long-term support and security, while Debian mainly caters to a wide range of individual users, from beginners to advanced. 

This is because Debian uses user-friendly Package Management (APT), enabling even beginners to manage the software. 

We provide self-managed VPS hosting – this means you will have full freedom and control over your Debian virtual private servers. In other words, our customer support team won’t have access to your server. 

To help you manage it, we offer:

• AI Assistant – prompt and get instant answers to any VPS-related question or relevant commands.
• Self-learning resources – we offer plenty of materials to cater to any knowledge level and learning method. Feel free to explore detailed tutorials and quick step-by-step guides or watch videos on Hostinger Academy.
