CentOS is one of the most preferred Linux-based server Operating Systems to choose from. It's used by a lot of website hosting service providers, since it is very stable, secure and reliable, not to mention that it can be customized freely, since it's an open-source OS. CentOS is used for production servers, as it is also very fast and takes negligible system resources. What's more, you're able to install and run any web application, provided that it can run on a Linux machine. If you use a CentOS-powered server, you are able to modify any part of the Operating System in accordance with your needs. The fact that CentOS is absolutely free does mean that you will need to pay for your server, but not for any sort of license fees, which will reduce your overall expenses. A large team of developers and users stands behind CentOS, therefore if you ever have any problems, or you're simply unsure how to perform a particular task, you will be able to discover a solution very quickly. An important advantage of the OS is also the fact that each and every version is officially supported and updated for no less than ten years, so that you will always have a secure and reliable software environment.

CentOS in VPS Servers

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

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

CentOS is among the Operating Systems which we supply with all of our dedicated server packages. Throughout the registration process, you can choose between the 32-bit and the 64-bit version of the OS and ensure that the software environment on your new server matches the requirements of the applications that you wish to set up. In contrast to other Operating Systems, CentOS will also allow you to pick from several hosting Control Panels, determined by what you need the server for. With Hepsia, for instance, you can control the whole server like an individual account irrespective of the number of domains which you host, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you'll be able to create a different account for each and every domain, which will give you the opportunity to start a hosting reseller business. If you do not select any Control Panel, you will receive the server with CentOS only, since the software that comes with the Control Panels will not be installed. We also provide weekly OS updates as part of our own Managed Services package, so you will not need to devote time and effort downloading and setting up the most recent and most protected software on the dedicated server.
