Distribution
Choose a currently supported OS release compatible with your control panel, database and application runtime.
Linux VPS
A Linux VPS should match the workload and the team operating it.
Linux is a flexible choice for web stacks, APIs, databases and private services, but the right deployment starts with supportability rather than a favourite distribution.
Quick answer
Choose a Linux VPS by workload, required software versions and operational skills. Prefer a maintained distribution supported by your application and automation, then define firewall, SSH, updates, monitoring and recovery before production use.
Deployment
A practical Linux VPS checklist
Access
Decide who gets administrative access, use SSH keys where practical and avoid sharing root credentials.
Services
Expose only required ports and keep databases/private services off the public interface when architecture allows.
Recovery
Define backups, off-server copies where needed and a tested restore path before the server becomes critical.
FAQ
Questions people ask before ordering
Choose a maintained distribution that your application and team support. Compatibility with your control panel, deployment tooling and required packages matters more than choosing a distribution by popularity alone.
No. A control panel is useful for conventional hosting workflows, but developers may prefer direct configuration or automation. A panel also adds its own licensing, updates and security responsibilities.

A useful recommendation starts with the workload, not a package name. Share current usage, expected traffic and whether you want server administration included.
Choose by workload, not by guesswork.
If you know the resources you need, open the live catalogue. If not, send the workload and we will help narrow the choice.
