CentOS is one of the most widely used Operating Systems for hosting servers. It is one of the many Linux distributions in existence, however what distinguishes it from all of the others is its long-term support, which ensures that you will always have a dependable and risk-free Operating System. Every CentOS version that is released is supported for a decade, which is a lot longer than with another OS in existence. CentOS also has a much more numerous developer community than other distributions, therefore in the event you encounter any kind of problem or have any questions, you'll be able to rapidly discover the data that you need. CentOS is widely known as among the best server Operating Systems, as it is very stable and secure, that makes it really reliable even when you host private data. Because it is open-source, you can modify every part of it and customize it according to your requirements, not to mention that the overall cost for a CentOS-based server will be lower, as you won't have to pay license fees of any sort.

CentOS in VPS Servers

CentOS is accessible with each and every VPS server that we supply and you'll be able to select it through the order process from among a couple of other Operating Systems. Depending on the software that you need to install and run, you can pick between the 32-bit and the 64-bit version then your new VPS will be online soon after that. CentOS supports all the three web hosting Control Panels which we supply - cPanel, DirectAdmin and Hepsia. This enables you to choose if you wish to employ the server for your personal web sites and to control it as one large account, or if you want to be able to generate numerous website hosting accounts and resell them to others. Of course, you may also buy a VPS without Control Panel and you will get a server with an OS and the Apache web server software, but no other thing on it, so that you can set up only the software that you need for your apps.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

CentOS is one of the Operating Systems that we offer with our dedicated server plans. During the registration process, you will be able to choose from the 32-bit and the 64-bit release of the OS and make sure that the software environment on your new server will meet the specifications of the apps that you want to set up. Unlike other Operating Systems, CentOS will also allow you to choose between various website hosting Control Panels, depending on what you need the server for. With Hepsia, for example, you're able to manage the server like just a single account irrespective of the number of domain names that you host, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you're able to create an individual account for each and every domain name, which will give you the opportunity to start a web hosting reseller business. If you don't select any Control Panel, you'll get your server with CentOS only, since the software that comes with the Control Panels won't be installed. We also provide weekly OS updates as part of our own Managed Services package, so you will not need to spend time and effort downloading and setting up the most up-to-date and most secure software on the dedicated server.
