Every virtual or dedicated hosting machine has its own Os and works separately from the hosting servers of other customers. Updating the OS is usually neglected, but doing that may have quite a lot of benefits for your sites. The most important reason to employ the latest version is that patches are typically released to deal with security holes in the Os code, so if you don't install the updates, you risk individuals with harmful intentions to exploit these holes and to access your content. OS updates are also released for much better efficiency of the system in general and for much better compatibility with the hardware available on the market, which could directly impact the performance of your sites. If the efficiency and the security of your scripts is the reason to update them, you could also find out that their latest versions require an updated Os so as to function effectively, consequently keeping the OS up-to-date is always a wise idea.

If you use one of our Virtual Private Servers, you can benefit from our Managed Services pack, which includes numerous admin tasks that our administrators can perform on your hosting server. Among them you'll discover the Os update service, so in case you include the pack to your virtual private server plan, we'll keep your OS up-to-date all the time. This is valid for all three Os's which we offer you - CentOS, Debian and Ubuntu. With this service, you'll not need to be worried about server-side security problems and you can employ it if you don't have much experience with maintaining a Linux machine or if you simply do not have time to take care of such matters. After every single update our administrators will make sure that all websites and offline apps which you have on the hosting server are operating properly.
Weekly OS Update in Dedicated Web Hosting
If you obtain one of our dedicated web hosting and you would like to have an up-to-date Operating System, but you have not managed your own server before and you are not certain how to do that or you just do not have enough time to deal with the server, you can take advantage of the OS update service which is included in our Managed Services pack. Our administrators can set up the latest patches for the OS which you have picked for the hosting server - CentOS, Debian or Ubuntu, and they will make certain that all your apps are operating correctly after that. The updates are carried out once a week, so you'll always have the latest Os version and you will not need to stress about any OS-related security problems.
