Linux is an Operating System, that is not that frequently used for desktop machines, but is amongst the most popular OSs for servers. It is totally free, so you shall not have to pay any license charges as part of your hosting payments. Linux is also thought to be the most reliable OS nowadays and due to the permissions that files have and also the file types that can be run, virus files that may infect a normal computer system shall simply not be executed on a Linux-based hosting server. Additionally, the Operating System is freeware, so it can easily be customized with no restrictions, so that it will match the requirements of the hosting company and their customers. This also implies that unwanted software packages can easily be removed to make the Operating system lighter and quicker, that may directly result in significantly better hosting server performance. Many Linux machines have the Apache web server set up on them, since this application is also totally free, quick and reliable. It's the most frequently used web server out there and is an element of the LAMP bundle that many script apps, such as WordPress and Joomla™, require. LAMP is an abbreviation for Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.
