The reason is the fact that the operating system is very light and it'll function on almost any kind of hardware without any issues, utilizing its resources to the fullest. Ubuntu is also very reliable and secure and all Long-Term Support (LTS) releases are supported for at least five years, which guarantees that you should have a risk-free and stable software environment on your hosting server at all times.

Among the main benefits of this OS is that it contains tens of thousands of software packages which can be freely changed according to your needs and / or the needs of the apps that you intend to run, not to mention that you won't have to pay any kind of license fees any time. In contrast, other OS's are paid and their code isn't accessible, thus it cannot be changed.
