CentOS is short for Community Enterprise OS. This is one of the best Linux distributions for servers and it is recognized as one of the most reliable and protected Operating Systems available. CentOS is open-source software, which means that you will be able to personalize it in any way you see fit, adding and removing packages or changing the code of all of them. It's also free to distribute and use, so you won't have to pay any kind of license fees, which means that the overall price that you will have to pay for a server making use of CentOS will be much lower as compared to the price for a server working with an alternative OS. What makes CentOS unique among various other Linux releases is its huge developer society, which will help you discover the answer to any kind of question or problem you may have. Furthermore, each version that is released officially is supported for a decade, that is is longer than with any other OS. What this means is routine protection and stability updates that provides a stable software environment for your web apps in the long run.

CentOS in VPS Servers

When you obtain one of our VPS server packages, you'll see CentOS as one of the Operating System possibilities on the sign-up page. You can decide to run either the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of CentOS, based on the software that you would like to set up later. In contrast to other Linux releases, CentOS supports different web hosting Control Panels as well, so you'll be able to select Hepsia, cPanel or DirectAdmin, each of which can be installed through the VPS creation, along with web server software, MySQL server software, etcetera. If you'd like to have a VPS for another purpose or if you'd like to install different software on it, you're able to order the server without Control Panel and you will acquire a machine with CentOS and the Apache web server software only. With a CentOS-powered virtual server from our company, you will enjoy a protected and reliable website hosting service for your web sites.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

You are able to acquire CentOS with each dedicated server that we supply, because 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are some of the options that you can choose on our order page. CentOS is compatible with all three hosting Control Panels that we supply, which means that you are able to choose Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel to be set up on your server. The first one is appropriate for less experienced users who need a powerful website hosting solution, since a Hepsia-equipped server is managed like a large account, while the other two Control Panels enable you to generate a variety of hosting accounts on the server and even to resell the hosting space. If you want CentOS without any additional software, you will be able to choose a server setup without Control Panel at all. Then you can add only the software that you need. We also offer a Managed Services upgrade, that includes weekly CentOS updates.
