CentOS is one of the most widely used Operating Systems for web hosting servers. It is one of the many Linux releases available, however what differentiates it from all the others is the long-term support, which guarantees that you will always have a stable and protected OS. Every CentOS version that is released is supported for 10 years, that's much longer than with any other OS in existence. CentOS also has a much larger developer community than other distributions, therefore in case you experience any kind of problem or have any questions, you're able to instantly find the data which you need. CentOS is widely known as one of the best server Operating Systems, since it is very stable and secure, that makes it very reliable even when you host confidential data. Because it is open-source, you are able to modify any part of it and customize it according to your needs, not to mention that the overall cost for a CentOS-based server will be lower, because you won't need to pay license fees of any sort.

CentOS in VPS Servers

When you purchase one of our VPS server plans, you will see CentOS as one of the Operating System possibilities on the signup page. You can decide to run either the 32-bit or the 64-bit version of CentOS, depending on the software that you intend to install later. In contrast to other Linux distributions, CentOS supports different web hosting Control Panels as well, so you will be able to select Hepsia, cPanel or DirectAdmin, each of which can be installed during the VPS creation, as well as web server software, MySQL server software, etc. When you'd like to have a VPS for a different purpose or if you need different software on it, you're able to order your 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 our company, you will enjoy a protected and reliable hosting service for all your sites.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

If you decide to get one of the dedicated server packages that we supply, you can choose the CentOS Operating System for your new machine. Due to the fact that it is very light and efficient, you will be able to utilize all of the system resources for your site. CentOS supports all three web hosting Control Panels which we provide - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. This way, you'll be able to use the dedicated server for any kind of purpose - to host all of your personal sites in a single account, to set up separate Control Panels for each and every domain name or even to resell website hosting plans to other people. You may also purchase a server without a Control Panel and install any custom-made software which you need, instead of the default applications that we install on each machine that is ordered with a Control Panel. If you add our optional Managed Services bundle throughout the registration process or at any later time, we will perform weekly CentOS updates besides all the other things that are included in the package.
