Secure and Efficient Unix Based System
Unlike the rest of the competition that is Windows-based, the Gallant VPS is Unix-based. Windows-based VPS platforms are subject to Spyware, Malware, Viruses and crashes. These serious issues can cause the loss of real money in your trading account. On the other hand, a Unix-based system is much more stable and reliable. For safety and peace of mind, the Gallant VPS is the obvious solution.
Some more advantages a Unix/Linux environment provides:
- Unix is more stable and does not go down as often as Windows does, therefore requires less administration and maintenance.
- Unix has greater built-in security and permissions features than Windows. - Unix possesses much greater processing power than Windows.
- Unix is the leader in serving the Web. About 90% of the Internet relies on Unix operating systems running Apache, the world's most widely used Web server.
- Software upgrades from Microsoft often require the user to purchase new or more hardware or prerequisite software. That is not the case with Unix.
- The mostly free or inexpensive open-source operating systems, such as Linux and BSD, with their flexibility and control, are very attractive to (aspiring) computer wizards. Many of the smartest programmers are developing state-of-the-art software free of charge for the fast growing "open-source movement”.
- Unix also inspires novel approaches to software design, such as solving problems by interconnecting simpler tools instead of creating large monolithic application programs.
