CentOS is an abbreviation for Community Enterprise OS. This is one of the best Linux releases for servers and it is recognized as being one of the most dependable and safe Operating Systems out there. CentOS is open-source software, which means that you're able to customize it in any way you see fit, adding and removing packages or changing the program code of all of them. It's also free to distribute and use, so you won't have to pay any license fees, meaning that the overall price that you'll have to pay for a server running CentOS will be cheaper as compared to the price for a server working with some other OS. What makes CentOS unique among various other Linux releases is its huge developer society, which will help you get the answer to any question or problem you have. What's even more, each version that's released officially is supported for 10 years, that is is a lot longer than with any other OS. This means ordinary security and stability updates which provides a stable software setting for your web apps in the long run.

CentOS in VPS Servers

When you buy one of our VPS server packages, you'll see CentOS as one of the Operating System choices on the signup page. You can choose to set up either the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of CentOS, depending on the software that you need to set up later. Unlike other Linux releases, CentOS supports different hosting Control Panels as well, so you will be able to choose Hepsia, cPanel or DirectAdmin, each of which can be installed through the VPS creation, along with web server software, MySQL server software, and so on. When you need a VPS for some other purpose or if you'd like to install different software on it, you're able to order the server with no Control Panel and you will obtain a machine with CentOS and the Apache web server software only. With a CentOS-powered virtual server from our company, you'll have a safe and reliable website hosting service for all of your Internet sites.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

CentOS is one of the Operating Systems that we provide with all of our dedicated server packages. Throughout the signup process, you'll be able to choose between the 32-bit and the 64-bit release of the OS and ensure that the software environment on your new server matches the requirements of the apps that you wish to set up. In contrast to other Operating Systems, CentOS also allows you to select from a couple of website hosting Control Panels, based on what you need the server for. With Hepsia, for example, you can manage the whole server like a single account regardless of the number of domain names which you host, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you'll be able to generate a different account for each domain, which will give you the opportunity to start a web hosting reseller business. In case you don't choose any Control Panel, you will get your server with CentOS only, since the software that comes with the Control Panels will not be installed. We also provide regular OS updates included in our Managed Services package, so you will not have to spend effort and time downloading and installing the most up-to-date and most protected software on the dedicated server.
