Every virtual or dedicated hosting server has its own Os and works separately from the hosting servers of other clients. Updating the Operating system is often ignored, but doing that could have quite a lot of benefits for your websites. The most important reason to employ the most up-to-date version is that patches are typically released to fix security holes within the Os code, so if you don't install the updates, you risk individuals with malicious intentions to use these holes and to access your content. OS updates are also released for enhanced efficiency of the system in general and for better compatibility with the hardware available on the market, which could instantly affect the functionality of your internet sites. If the efficiency and the security of your scripts is the reason to update them, you might also know that their newest versions require an updated Os in order to operate properly, therefore keeping the Operating system up-to-date is always a wise idea.
Weekly OS Update in Dedicated Servers
If you get one of our dedicated web hosting plans and you wish to have an up-to-date Os, but you haven't managed your own hosting server before and you're not confident how to do that or you just do not have much time to manage the hosting machine, you can take advantage of the OS update service that's integrated in our Managed Services package. Our administrators can set up the latest patches for the Operating system that you have picked for the hosting machine - CentOS, Debian or Ubuntu, and they will make certain that all your apps are working correctly after that. The updates are done on a weekly basis, so you will constantly have the latest Operating System version and you won't have to bother about any OS-related security problems.
