CentOS is amongst the most sought after Linux-based server Operating Systems out there. It's used by a large number of web hosting suppliers, since it's very stable, secure and reliable, not to mention that it is freely customizable, since it is an open-source OS. CentOS is used for production servers, as it is also very quick and takes negligible resources. What's more, you will be able to install and run any web application, as long as it can run on a Linux equipment. When you use a CentOS-powered server, you're able to adjust any part of your Operating System according to your needs. The fact that CentOS is free of charge does mean that you'll have to pay only for your server, but not for any sort of license fees, that will minimize your overall expenses. A large group of developers and users stands behind CentOS, therefore if you ever have any problems, or you are simply unsure how to perform a certain task, you can find a solution quickly. An important benefit of the OS is also the fact that every single release is officially supported and updated for a minimum of 10 years, which means that you'll always have a safe and reliable software environment.
CentOS in VPS Servers
CentOS is one of several Operating System solutions provided by our VPS plans. You will get an efficient, safe and reliable machine using a 32- or 64-bit OS, according to the selection that you've made through the registration process. You will also be able to pick from the Hepsia and cPanel web hosting Control Panels - something, which is not possible with other Linux releases. These options provide you with the opportunity to choose what you would like to do with the VPS - to host your Internet sites and to maintain the whole server as a single very powerful account, or to make multiple accounts and give access to other people if, for instance, you want to start a web hosting reseller business. If you're more experienced and you want a server with CentOS, yet without the further software that is usually installed on it, you'll be able to purchase a VPS without any Control Panel. This allows you to entirely customize the software environment for your sites.
CentOS in Dedicated Servers
You are able to acquire CentOS with each dedicated server which we provide, because 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are some of the options which you'll be able to select on our registration page. CentOS is compatible with all three website hosting Control Panels that we supply, therefore you'll be able to choose Hepsia or cPanel to be installed on your server. The first one is suitable for less experienced users that need a powerful hosting solution, because a Hepsia-equipped server is managed like a very large account, while the other two Control Panels will allow you to create a number of website hosting accounts on your server and even to resell the web hosting space. If you need CentOS without any additional software, you'll be able to choose 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.
