If you get a hosting server of your own, it will run independently, so it'll have its own Os and you could later install server side applications directly or script-driven internet sites via a hosting Control Panel. Though keeping the Os updated isn't always considered fundamental, it can be a rather important task for a number of reasons. A more modern OS version may have better support for specific hardware, so you may get better performance for the sites and web applications you install. Your server shall also be more secure since updates normally include security patches which deal with small issues which may permit unauthorized individuals to access your content. Last, but not least, current script versions, which are also released for both improved security and for additional features, may need a later version of the Os in order to work correctly and with their 100 % capabilities.
