What are the available operating systems for VPS?

Choosing between available operating systems for VPS at Hostinger

Updated yesterday

At Hostinger, we have two types of VPS. You can check the information below corresponding to your hosting, either VPS or Game Panelhosting.

VPS hosting

Right after purchasing yourKVM VPS plan and during setup, you will be presented with several Linux-based operating system templates; some of them with pre-installed control panels or applications. The installation is done in just a few clicks!

If you have already selected an OS template, you can also change it at any time.

Changing your current template will permanently delete all the content of your VPS – make sure to download backups beforehand!

Available OS templates

We offer a wide variety of operating systems to choose from. Expand each section below for details:

Alma Linux

CentOS

CloudLinuxOS

Debian

Kali Linux

Rocky Linux

Ubuntu (plain)

As well as for Ubuntu 24.04:

• Coolify
• Discourse
• Ollama
• VS Code

Game Panel hosting

For Game Panel hosting, we offer a single template to make the setup as easy and fast as possible for you: Debian 11 with Game Panel.

NOTES

• If you have a VPS plan with OpenVZ virtualization (not available for new purchases), you can check the operating system options when changing the OS template.
• For Minecraft plans with OpenVZ virtualization (not available for new purchases), the installed system is Debian 9 with Game Panel.
• All our operating systems are 64bit.
