If you get a server of your own, it will run independently, so it will have its own Os and you could later install server side programs directly or script-driven websites via a hosting Control Panel. Even though keeping the Os updated isn't always considered fundamental, it can be a quite important task for a number of reasons. A newer OS version may have better support for specific hardware, so you might get better performance for the internet sites and web apps which you install. Your server shall also be more secure since updates normally include security patches which take care of small issues that may allow unauthorized people to access your content. Last, but not least, more recent script versions, which are also released for both boosted security and for additional features, might require a later version of the Operating System in order to work properly and with their full capabilities.
Weekly OS Update in Dedicated Hosting
We can keep the Os on your dedicated server updated every week as an element of our Managed Services upgrade, which you will be able to add to your plan whenever you want via your billing Control Panel. The service is applicable to all Os's which we offer for the hosting machines and our admins will set up all software patches which have been officially released in order to ensure that you have a reliable and secure server for your websites. They will also double-check if the software which you have installed is functioning correctly after the update. The service is a great choice in case you do not have much experience running your own hosting server or if you simply don't want to waste time on administration tasks.
