CentOS is short for Community Enterprise OS. This is one of the top Linux releases for servers and it is well known as being one of the most dependable and protected Operating Systems available. CentOS is open-source software, so you'll be able to personalize it in whatever way you see fit, adding and removing packages or modifying the code of all of them. It's also free to distribute and use, so you won't have to pay any kind of 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 another OS. What makes CentOS unique among other Linux releases is its huge developer community, which will help you get the reply to any kind of question or problem you may have. Furthermore, each version that is released officially is supported for a decade, which is a lot longer than with any alternative operating system. What this means is ordinary safety and stability updates which provides a great software setting for your web applications in the long run.

CentOS in VPS Web Hosting

When you acquire one of our virtual private server packages, you will see CentOS as one of the Operating System possibilities on the registration page. You are able to choose to run either the 32-bit or the 64-bit version of CentOS, depending on the software that you would like to set up later. Unlike other Linux releases, CentOS supports different web hosting Control Panels as well, so you can pick Hepsia, cPanel or DirectAdmin, each of which can be installed throughout the VPS creation, along with web server software, MySQL server software, etcetera. If you'd like to have a VPS for another purpose or if you need different software on it, you are able to order your server without Control Panel and you will obtain a machine with CentOS and the Apache web server software only. With a CentOS-powered virtual server from our company, you will enjoy a secure and reliable web hosting service for your Internet sites.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers Hosting

CentOS is among the Operating Systems which we provide with our dedicated server plans. During the sign-up process, you will be able to choose between 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 would like to set up. Compared to other Operating Systems, CentOS will also allow you to choose from various hosting Control Panels, according to what you need the server for. With Hepsia, for example, you'll be able to take care of the entire server like just a single account whatever the number of domains that you host, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you're able to generate a separate account for each and every domain, that can give you the opportunity to start a web hosting reseller business. In case you don't pick any Control Panel, you'll receive 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 won't have to invest time and effort downloading and setting up the most up-to-date and most secure software on the dedicated server.
