Happy 32nd Birthday, Linux!

On this day, 32 years ago, Linus Torvalds, then a university student in Finland, announced publicly to the comp.os.minix Usenet newsgroup that he was developing an operating system. As he said, it was "just a hobby, won't be big and professional". Today, Linux is used everywhere. While it has only 2-3% market share for desktops, it runs on 96% of the top 1 million web servers, and on 100% of the top 500 supercomputers.

All ICDSoft servers run on Linux as well. From shared servers to powerful managed virtual servers, we rely on arguably the most secure operating system out there. We also have additional security measures, automatic monitoring systems, and software optimizations in place to further enhance the security and performance of our servers and all websites hosted on them.

If you need a powerful server with extra CPU power (thanks to our CPU burst technology) and plenty of RAM that runs on Linux, look no further: https://www.icdsoft.com/en/hosting/managed-vps
