CentOS is among the most widespread Linux-based server Operating Systems nowadays. It's used by various web hosting suppliers, as it's very stable, secure and reliable, not to mention that it can be customized freely, since it is an open-source Operating System. CentOS is used for production servers, for the reason that it's also very fast and takes negligible system resources. On top of that, you can set up and run any web app, as long as it can run on a Linux computer system. When you use a CentOS-powered server, you can edit any part of the Operating System in accordance with your specifications. The fact that CentOS is provided for free means that you'll have to pay only for your server, and not for any sort of license fees, that will decrease your overall expenses. A huge community of developers and users stands behind CentOS, and if you ever experience any problems, or you are simply unsure how to perform a specific task, you'll be able to find a solution in no time. An important benefit of the OS is also the fact that every single version is officially supported and updated for no less than ten years, so that you'll always have a secure and stable software environment.
CentOS in VPS Servers
CentOS is among the Operating System choices provided by our VPS web hosting plans. You will get a fast, well-protected and dependable machine equipped with a 32- or 64-bit OS, depending on the choice that you've made during the registration process. You'll also be able to select from the Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin hosting Control Panels - something, which is not possible with the other Linux releases. These options provide you with the opportunity to decide what you'd like to do with the VPS - to host your personal websites and to manage the whole server as one very powerful account, or to make a number of accounts and provide access to others if, for example, you intend to start a web hosting reseller business. In case you are more experienced and you need a server with CentOS, but without the further software that's usually installed on it, you're able to get a VPS without any Control Panel. This will enable you to completely modify the software environment for your Internet sites.
CentOS in Dedicated Servers
You'll be able to get CentOS with each dedicated server that we supply, as 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS are some of the options that you are able to choose on our order page. CentOS supports all three website hosting Control Panels which we supply, therefore you are able to select Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel to be installed on your server. The first is suitable for less experienced users who want a powerful web hosting solution, considering that a Hepsia-equipped server is controlled like a very large account, whereas the other two Control Panels will allow you to generate a variety of hosting accounts on the server and even to resell the hosting space. If you need CentOS with no additional software, you will be able to select a server setup with no Control Panel at all. You can then add just the software that you need. We also offer a Managed Services upgrade, which includes weekly CentOS updates.
