If you get a hosting server of your own, it will run independently, so it'll have its own Operating System and you can later install server side programs directly or script-driven websites through a hosting Cp. Though keeping the Os updated is not always considered an absolute necessity, it can be a really important task for a number of reasons. A more modern Operating system version may have better support for certain hardware, so you might get better performance for the websites and web applications that you install. Your server shall also be more protected since updates often include security patches that fix small problems which may allow unauthorized individuals to access your content. Last, but not least, more modern script versions, which are also released for both increased security and for additional features, may need a later version of the Operating System in order to work properly and with their 100 % capabilities.
