Every virtual or dedicated server has its own Os and operates separately from the servers of other clients. Updating the Operating system is often overlooked, but doing that might have lots of benefits for your internet sites. The most essential reason to use the newest version is that patches are usually released to fix security holes within the Os code, so if you don't install the updates, you risk individuals with destructive intentions to use these holes and to gain access to your content. OS updates are also released for improved performance of the system in general and for much better compatibility with the hardware on the market, which can directly influence the performance of your sites. If the functionality and the security of your scripts is the reason to update them, you may also know that their latest versions require an updated Os in order to operate effectively, thus keeping the OS up-to-date is always wise.

If you get one of our dedicated web hosting and you would like to have an up-to-date Os, but you haven't managed your own hosting server before and you are not confident how to do that or you simply do not have much time to deal with the hosting machine, you can take advantage of the Operating system update service which is integrated in our Managed Services pack. Our admins can install the latest patches for the OS which you have picked for the server - CentOS, Debian or Ubuntu, and they will make sure that all your apps are working correctly after that. The updates are carried out each week, so you'll always have the latest Os version and you won't need to worry about any OS-related security issues.
