Some of the most important things you have to consider when choosing an operating system for your server is software you plan to use and if it’s compatible, programming language website is using, database type that will be used. Control panel preference is also a limiting factor for the operating system your server will use.

I have been using Windows Server for many years, so I am satisfied with the stability of this OS. I had nothing to do with Linux, so I can't say anything about it. I also agree with you that you should not neglect data backups and configure it right away. Because I used to have problems with that. I had to use RAID Recovery to recover lost data. I succeeded and after that I set up an automatic backup.
