CentOS is short for Community Enterprise OS. This is one of the top Linux distributions for servers and it is regarded as being one of the most dependable and risk-free Operating Systems on the market. CentOS is open-source software, which means that you can personalize it in any way you see fit, adding and removing packages or updating the code of any of them. It's also free to distribute and use, so you will not need to pay any license fees, meaning that the overall price that you'll need to pay for a server making use of CentOS will be more affordable as compared to the price for a server working with some other OS. What makes CentOS stand out among various other Linux distributions is its huge developer community, that will help you discover the reply to any question or problem you might have. In addition, each version which is released officially is supported for ten years, that's is much longer than with any alternative operating system. This means regular protection and stability updates that will provide a reliable software setting for all of your web applications in the long run.

CentOS in VPS Servers

CentOS is accessible with each and every VPS server that we provide and you can select it through the order process from among a couple of other Operating Systems. Determined by the software that you'd like to set up and run, you are able to pick between the 32-bit and the 64-bit version and your new VPS will be installed and operating soon after that. CentOS supports all of the three web hosting Control Panels which we offer - cPanel, DirectAdmin and Hepsia. This will help you choose if you want to employ the server for your very own Internet sites and to manage it as a single large account, or if you want to be able to generate a variety of hosting accounts and resell them to other people. Of course, you can also get a VPS with no Control Panel and you will get a server with an OS and the Apache web server software, but nothing else on it, so you can install just the software which you need for your apps.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

You are able to get CentOS with each and every dedicated server that we supply, since 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are among the options which you'll be able to select on the order page. CentOS supports all three website hosting Control Panels which we supply, therefore you'll be able to pick Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel to be set up on your server. The first one is appropriate for less experienced users who need a powerful hosting solution, because a Hepsia-equipped server is managed like a single very large account, while the other two Control Panels will help you set up a variety of website hosting accounts on the server and even to resell the website hosting space. If you want CentOS with no additional software, you are able to select a server setup with no Control Panel at all. You can then add only the software that you need. We also offer a Managed Services upgrade, that features weekly CentOS updates.
