Linux is an OS, that is not that popular for desktop machines, but is among the most frequently used OSs for web servers. It's free of charge, so you shall not have to pay any license fees as part of your web hosting payments. Linux is also regarded as the most risk-free OS out there and due to the permissions which files have and the file types that can be run, virus files that could infect a normal computer shall simply not be executed on a Linux-based server. Furthermore, the OS is totally free, so it could be customized without any restrictions, as a way to meet the requirements of the hosting company and their clients. This suggests that unneeded software packages can be removed to make the Operating system lighter and much faster, that can directly contribute to a lot better server performance. A lot of Linux machines have the Apache web server set up on them, since this program is also free, quick and reliable. It's the most commonly used web server around and is a part of the LAMP bundle that many script apps, including Joomla™ and WordPress, need. LAMP is an abbreviation for Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.
