Ubuntu is a widely used desktop OS, that uses the Linux kernel, but its server version is getting quite popular as well. The main reason is that the operating system is really light and it will function on almost any hardware without issues, utilizing its resources to the maximum. Ubuntu is also extremely reliable and secure and all the Long-Term Support (LTS) releases are supported for a minimum of 5 years, which warrants that you will have a safe and stable software environment on your website hosting server all the time. Also, Ubuntu has one of the biggest user communities worldwide, which means that if you experience any issue or have any kind of question, you will find lots of resources on the Internet. Among the major advantages of this Operating System is that it comes with numerous software packages that can be easily modified in accordance with your needs and the needs of the apps that you need to run, not to mention that you will not have to pay any license fees any time. In comparison, other OS's are paid and their code is not accessible, therefore it cannot be changed.
