CentOS is short for Community Enterprise Operating System. This is one of the leading Linux releases for servers and it's recognized as being one of the most reliable and risk-free Operating Systems on the market. CentOS is open-source software, so you will be able to personalize it in any way you see fit, adding and removing packages or changing the program code of any of them. It's also free to distribute and use, so you will not need to pay any license fees, which means that the total price that you'll need to pay for a server making use of CentOS will be cheaper 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 community, which will help you get the answer to any kind of question or problem you may have. In addition, each version that's released officially is supported for 10 years, that's is longer than with any alternative operating system. This means frequent safety and stability updates that provides a great software setting for all of your web apps in the long run.

CentOS in VPS Servers

CentOS is one of several Operating System choices offered by our VPS plans. You will get an efficient, risk-free and reliable machine with a 32- or 64-bit OS, depending on the selection that you've made through the registration process. You can also pick from the Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin web hosting Control Panels - something, which is not possible with the other Linux distributions. These options will provide you with the opportunity to choose what you'd like to do with the VPS - to host your own sites and to control the entire server as a single very powerful account, or to set up multiple accounts and give access to other people if, for example, you wish to start a hosting reseller business. If you're more experienced and you need a server with CentOS, but without the additional software which is usually installed on it, you will be able to get a VPS without Control Panel. This will help you completely customize the software environment for your websites.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

You will be able to obtain CentOS with each and every dedicated server that we provide, since 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS are some of the options which you will be able to select on the order page. CentOS supports all three hosting Control Panels which we supply, so that you can pick Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel to be set up on the server. The first one is appropriate for less experienced users that need a powerful hosting solution, considering that a Hepsia-equipped server is controlled like one very large account, whereas the other two Control Panels will help you generate various hosting accounts on your server and even to resell the website hosting space. If you need CentOS with no additional software, you can choose a server setup without Control Panel at all. After that you can add just the software that you need. We also offer a Managed Services upgrade, which includes weekly CentOS updates.
