Linux is an Operating System, which is not that widely used for desktop machines, but is among the most commonly used OSs for servers. It is totally free, so you shall not need to pay any license costs as part of your website hosting payments. Linux is also thought of as the most risk-free OS available and because of the permissions that files have as well as the file types that can be run, virus files that can infect a regular personal computer will simply not be executed on a Linux-based web server. Moreover, the OS is freeware, so it can easily be modified with no limits, so that it will match the requirements of the website hosting company and their customers. This means that unneeded software packages can be removed to make the OS lighter and quicker, that can directly result in far better hosting server performance. A large number of Linux machines have the Apache web server installed on them, due to the fact that this application is also totally free, quick and reliable. It is the most popular web server around and is a part of the LAMP bundle that a lot of script applications, like Joomla™ and WordPress, require. LAMP is an abbreviation for Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.
