If you get a server of your own, it will work independently, so it'll have its own Os and you'll be able to later install server side programs directly or script-driven websites through a hosting Control Panel. Even though keeping the Operating System updated isn't always considered a necessity, it can be a rather important task for a variety of reasons. A more modern Operating system version could have better support for specific hardware, so you could get better performance for the sites and web applications which you install. Your server shall also be more safe as updates typically include security patches which resolve small problems that may permit unauthorized people to access your content. Last, but not least, more modern script versions, which are also released for both improved security and for additional features, may need a later version of the Operating System in order to work effectively and with their full capabilities.
