Each and every virtual or dedicated hosting server has its own Os and functions separately from the hosting machines of other clients. Updating the OS is usually neglected, but doing that may have lots of advantages for your websites. The most essential reason to use the most recent version is that patches are typically released to deal with security holes inside the Operating System code, so if you do not install the updates, you risk people with malicious intentions to exploit these holes and to access your content. OS updates are also released for improved performance of the system as a whole and for much better compatibility with the hardware available on the market, which could immediately influence the efficiency of your internet sites. If the efficiency and the security of your scripts is the reason to update them, you might also find out that their latest versions require an updated Os in order to function properly, therefore keeping the OS up-to-date is always a good idea.
Weekly OS Update in VPS Servers
If you go for one of our VPS servers plans but you don't have a lot of time to take care of the server maintenance or you're not really experienced, you can take advantage of the Managed Services upgrade that we offer you. Among other things, our administrators will manage the Os updates for you, so you will constantly have a secure and reliable hosting server. The updates are performed on a weekly basis and after each our support team will ensure that any piece of software set up on the hosting machine is operating properly in order to avoid any incompatibility problems later on. You could use the Managed services upgrade and the Os update service for every Operating system that we provide - Ubuntu, CentOS and Debian.
Weekly OS Update in Dedicated Servers
We can keep the Os on your dedicated server updated every week as a part of our Managed Services upgrade, that you can add to your plan whenever you want using your billing Control Panel. The service is applicable to all Operating Systems which we provide for the servers and our administrators will set up all software patches that have been officially released so as to ensure that you have a reliable and secure hosting server for your sites. They'll also double-check if the software that you have installed is working adequately after the update. The service is an excellent choice if you do not have a lot of experience running your own hosting machine or if you simply do not want to waste time on administration tasks.
