If you get a server of your own, it will run independently, so it'll have its own Os and you can later install server side apps directly or script-driven internet sites via a hosting Cp. While keeping the Os updated isn't always considered an absolute necessity, it can be a very important task for several reasons. A more modern Operating system version may have better support for specific hardware, so you could get better performance for the internet sites and web applications that you install. Your server will also be more safe since updates often include security patches that fix small issues which may allow unauthorized people to access your content. Last, but not least, newer script versions, which are also released for both increased security and for additional features, may require a later version of the Os in order to work properly and with their full capabilities.
