PostgreSQL and MariaDB servers
Run database servers on a lean base system so more of the plan's memory goes to buffers and caches.
Debian is renowned as 'The Universal Operating System'. With minimal baseline memory usage (often under 65MB at idle) and a rigorously tested package release philosophy, Debian ensures years of uninterrupted server runtime without breaking API changes.
The version, kernel and tools in our image.
Debian 12 (Bookworm) & 11 (Bullseye)
Linux 6.1 LTS
APT / Dpkg
Mission-critical database clusters, minimal footprint servers, enterprise systems requiring absolute stability and lowest RAM overhead.
Full root (or Administrator) access over SSH or RDP
Popular ways people use this operating system.
Run database servers on a lean base system so more of the plan's memory goes to buffers and caches.
Host Postfix, Dovecot and Rspamd on a stable release where package versions stay fixed and only security fixes arrive.
Start from a small install and add only Docker or Podman, which keeps the host easy to audit and patch.
Run BIND, Unbound or PowerDNS on a quiet system with very few background services competing for resources.
Install HestiaCP, ISPConfig or Virtualmin, which support Debian, to manage websites, mail and DNS from a browser.
Host file sharing, Git and chat for a team on a release where routine updates rarely change how services behave.

Quick answers to common questions.
Debian 12 (Bookworm) is the newer of the two releases we offer and ships Linux 6.1 LTS. Pick Debian 11 (Bullseye) only when an application still requires it.
Take a snapshot, change the release name in your APT sources, then run apt update and apt full-upgrade. Read the release notes for that version first, as they list known issues.
Debian stable fixes package versions at release and afterwards ships only security and important bug fixes. If you need a newer version of one tool, check the backports repository before adding third-party sources.
