CentOS is an abbreviation for Community Enterprise Operating System. This is one of the top Linux releases for servers and it's recognized as one of the most stable and secure Operating Systems on the market. CentOS is open-source software, which means that you can personalize it in whatever way you see fit, adding and removing packages or modifying the code of any of them. It is also free to distribute and use, so you won't have to pay any kind of license fees, which means that the overall price that you will have to pay for a server running CentOS will be lower as compared to the price for a server running some other OS. What makes CentOS unique among other Linux distributions is its huge developer society, that will help you get the answer to any kind of question or problem you might have. What's even more, each version which is released officially is supported for a decade, which is a lot longer than with any other OS. What this means is frequent protection and stability updates which will provide a dependable software environment for all of your web apps in the long run.

CentOS in VPS

When you purchase one of our virtual private server packages, you'll see CentOS as one of the Operating System options on the registration page. You'll be able to choose to install either the 32-bit or the 64-bit version of CentOS, according to the software that you intend to install later. In contrast to other Linux releases, CentOS supports different web hosting Control Panels as well, so you'll be able to choose Hepsia or cPanel, each of which can be installed throughout the VPS creation, along with web server software, MySQL server software, and so on. When you'd like to have a VPS for a different purpose or if you want different software on it, you're able to order the server without any Control Panel and you'll obtain a machine with CentOS and the Apache web server software only. With a CentOS-powered virtual server from our company, you'll have a protected and reliable website hosting service for all your sites.

CentOS in Dedicated Hosting

You can acquire CentOS with each dedicated server that we provide, since 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are among the options which you're able to pick on the registration page. CentOS supports all three hosting Control Panels which we offer, so you are able to select Hepsia or cPanel to be set up on your server. The first is suitable for less experienced users who want a powerful hosting solution, because a Hepsia-equipped server is managed like a large account, whereas the other two Control Panels allow you to 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 pick 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, that features weekly CentOS updates.
