Debian is an Operating System that uses the Linux kernel. Even though it is usually installed on desktop machines, it is being used on an increasing number of web servers as well. The reason is that it is very stable, so a server running it will not have to be restarted for months. Debian is also regarded as being among the most secure Operating Systems nowadays, as security patches are released within days after a problem is discovered. This is possible since thousands of well-experienced developers are part of the Debian project on a voluntary basis and not only do they work on the OS itself, in addition, they provide 24/7 support via special e-mail lists and reply within twenty minutes to any question. Thus, you'll receive top-level support directly from the developers who know their own platform in depth, and not from a third-party support team. Debian is also among the Linux distributions with the highest number of packages - more than 30,000. Since the Operating System is absolutely free to use, you can modify both the core and all of the packages in any way you see fit. Furthermore, you will not need to pay any kind of license fees.
