Frequently asked questions

What is Debian Desktop?

Debian Desktop is the graphical desktop version of Debian GNU/Linux, one of the oldest and most respected Linux distributions. Unlike server versions that run headless, Debian Desktop includes a full graphical interface with desktop environments like GNOME, KDE, or Xfce. It provides a complete computing environment with applications for development, creativity, and everyday computing. Debian is known for its legendary stability, massive software repository, and commitment to free software principles.

What are the system requirements for deploying Debian Desktop?

The recommended minimum system requirements for installing Debian Desktop are at least 1 gigabyte of memory, 2 gigabytes of RAM, and 10 gigabytes of hard disk space. For more detailed information, refer to the installation guide.

How is Debian Desktop different from Debian Server?

Debian Desktop includes a graphical user interface (GUI) with window managers, desktop environments, and graphical applications for everyday use. Debian Server typically runs without a GUI to conserve resources and focus purely on server tasks. Debian Desktop is designed for interactive use with a mouse, keyboard, and monitor, while Debian Server is primarily managed through command-line interfaces. However, both share the same underlying Debian foundation and package repositories.

What can I do with Debian Desktop?

Everything you’d do with any desktop computer: software development, web browsing, document creation, email, image and video editing, scientific computing, system administration, running virtual machines, database management, 3D modeling, and audio production. Debian’s vast repositories support nearly any computing task. It’s particularly popular among developers, system administrators, researchers, and users who prioritize stability and privacy.

Can I scale resources for my Debian Desktop after deployment?

Absolutely. Add more CPU cores, increase RAM, or expand storage anytime without reinstalling or losing data. Start with basic resources and scale up as your needs grow, or temporarily boost performance for demanding projects.

How does Debian compare to other stable distributions like Rocky Linux?

Debian and Rocky Linux target different philosophies. Debian prioritizes pure open-source software and stability through rigorous testing, with a massive package repository and longer release testing cycles. Rocky Linux provides RHEL compatibility for enterprise software requirements with a faster release cadence. Debian is community-driven and independent, while Rocky Linux focuses on RHEL compatibility. Choose Debian for maximum software availability and pure stability, or Rocky Linux for RHEL ecosystem requirements.

How does the free trial work?

Our 30-day free trial includes one server worth up to $100. You can set up your free VPS server, install an operating system, and select a location from one of our 20+ data centers worldwide.

If you choose monthly billing, you will receive your first invoice the month after the free trial expires. For example, if you start your free trial on November 20, the free trial will be until December 20. If you choose to continue using our services and don’t terminate your server, your first invoice will be sent out after January 1. That invoice will include a prorated charge for December 20-31, as well as the month of January.

How does billing work?

Our flexible monthly and hourly pricing models allow you to keep your costs under control. If you choose an hourly server, we bill for the resources you use. You’re only charged for the time your server is running. You can see real-time usage in your dashboard, and there are no surprise charges or hidden fees.
