CentOS is amongst the most preferred Linux-based server Operating Systems to choose from. It's employed by a number of hosting service providers, because it is very stable, reliable and secure, not to mention that it is freely customizable, since it is an open-source OS. CentOS is used for production servers, as it's also very quick and takes minimal system resources. In addition, you will be able to install and run any web app, as long as it can function on a Linux computer system. When you use a CentOS-powered server, you can adjust any part of your Operating System according to your requirements. The fact that CentOS is absolutely free also means that you will need to pay for your server, and not for any kind of license fees, which will decrease your overall expenses. A vast community of developers and users is behind CentOS, so if you ever have any kind of problems, or you are simply unsure how to perform a specific task, you'll be able to find a solution quickly. An important benefit of the OS is also the fact that each release is officially supported and updated for no less than 10 years, so that you'll always have a secure and reliable software environment.
CentOS in VPS Servers
If you buy one of our VPS server packages, you will see CentOS as one of the Operating System choices on the sign-up page. You are able to choose to set up either the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of CentOS, according to the software that you would like to install later. Unlike other Linux distributions, CentOS supports different hosting Control Panels as well, so you'll be able to pick Hepsia, cPanel or DirectAdmin, each of which can be installed during the VPS creation, as well as web server software, MySQL server software, etcetera. If you need a VPS for another purpose or if you'd like to have 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 us, you'll have a protected and reliable website hosting service for all of your web sites.
CentOS in Dedicated Servers
You are able to acquire CentOS with each dedicated server that we supply, since 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are some of the options that you're able to select on the registration page. CentOS is compatible with all three hosting Control Panels which we provide, so you can choose Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel to be set up on the server. The first one is suitable for less experienced users who want a powerful web hosting solution, since a Hepsia-equipped server is controlled like one very large account, while the other two Control Panels will allow you to generate a variety of hosting accounts on the server and even to resell the web hosting space. If you need CentOS without any additional software, you can pick a server setup without Control Panel at all. You can then add only the software that you need. We also offer a Managed Services upgrade, which includes weekly CentOS updates.
