Linux is an OS, that is not that popular for desktop machines, but is amongst the most widely used OSs for servers. It's totally free, so you shall not have to pay any license costs as part of your website hosting payments. Linux is also regarded as being the most risk-free OS out there and because of the permissions that files have along with the file types that can be run, virus files which can easily infect a normal computer will simply not be executed on a Linux-based web server. Also, the Operating System is 100 % free, so it can be modified with no restrictions, so as to match the needs of the hosting company and their clients. This implies that unnecessary software packages could be removed to make the OS lighter and faster, that can directly lead to much better hosting server performance. Numerous Linux machines have the Apache web server set up on them, because this piece of software is also free, fast and secure. It's the most commonly used web server around and is a part of the LAMP bundle that many script applications, such as Joomla™ and WordPress, require. LAMP is an abbreviation for Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.
