openSUSE VPS hosting

openSUSE VPS hosting is a service that enables you to run the open-source Linux distribution on a virtual private server. It comes with root access, so you have the freedom to install any additional software, use any programming languages, and basically configure the server settings to your exact liking.

With Hostinger, you simply need to purchase a VPS plan and choose the openSUSE operating system during onboarding. After that, follow the rest of the instructions, and you will get access to your hPanel dashboard.

From there, you can pretty much do anything to your backend infrastructure, including adding SSH keys and creating a custom firewall for added protection, installing third-party control panels and software, and monitoring your resource usage.

Absolutely. Our custom control panel, hPanel, is designed to be as simple as possible for both beginners and seasoned pros. If you’re not sure how to do something, you can always ask Kodee for fast and accurate solutions.

Plus, openSUSE comes with an intuitive setup tool called YaST, which helps you configure the network, update software packages, modify firewall settings, and more.

Follow these steps to migrate your VPS to Hostinger:

1. Create backups for all the files you want to migrate.
2. Buy a new VPS service from Hostinger. Make sure the chosen hosting plan offers the same resources as your previous one.
3. During the onboarding process, install the openSUSE OS.
4. Transfer your data to your new VPS using FTP, scp, or rsync tools.
5. Point your domain name to the new VPS IP address.

Run a test to see if everything works perfectly, and that’s it! 

You will get access to a personal AI assistant called Kodee. Ask anything, and Kodee will come back with an answer in seconds.
