Linux is an Operating System, which is not that popular for desktop machines, but is amongst the most frequently used OSs for web servers. It is free of charge, so you will not have to pay any license charges as part of your web hosting payments. Linux is furthermore regarded as being the most risk-free OS around and due to the permissions which files have and also the file types that can be run, virus files that can infect an average PC will simply not be executed on a Linux-based server. Moreover, the Operating System is free, so it can easily be customized with no limits, in order to meet the requirements of the website hosting company and their clients. This also means that unneeded software packages can easily be removed to make the OS lighter and much faster, that can directly lead to far better hosting server performance. A lot of Linux machines have the Apache web server set up on them, because this program is also totally free, fast and stable. It is the most frequently used web server around and is part of the LAMP bundle that lots of script apps, such as Joomla™ and WordPress, need. LAMP is an abbreviation for Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.
