CentOS is one of the preferred Operating Systems for hosting servers. It is one of the countless Linux releases out there, yet what distinguishes it from all of the others is its long-term support, which guarantees that you will always have a reliable and safe Operating System. Every CentOS version that is released is supported for 10 years, that is longer than with almost every other OS on the market. CentOS also has a much more numerous developer community than other distributions, so in the event you encounter any problem or have any questions, you are able to promptly discover the information that you need. CentOS is regarded as one of the best server Operating Systems, because it's very stable and secure, that makes it really reliable even when you host sensitive information. Since it is open-source, you're able to modify each and every part of it and customize it according to your requirements, not to mention that the total cost for a CentOS-based server will be lower, as you will not need to pay license fees of any type.

CentOS in VPS Servers

CentOS is available with every single VPS server that we supply and you will be able to select it during the order process from among several other Operating Systems. Determined by the software that you would like to set up and run, you'll be able to pick between the 32-bit and the 64-bit version then your new VPS will be installed and operating shortly after that. CentOS supports all the three web hosting Control Panels that we supply - cPanel and Hepsia. This will help you choose if you wish to use the server for your own websites and to manage it as one large account, or if you want to be able to make numerous hosting accounts and eventually resell them to others. Of course, you can also order a VPS without Control Panel and you will get a server with an Operating System and the Apache web server software, but nothing else on it, so you can set up just the software that you need for your applications.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

CentOS is one of the Operating Systems that we supply with all our dedicated server packages. During the registration process, you can pick from 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 requirements of the apps that you wish to install. In contrast to other Operating Systems, CentOS also allows you to select from several web hosting Control Panels, based on what you need the server for. With Hepsia, for example, you're able to manage the whole server like just a single account whatever the number of domain names that you host, while with cPanel you can make a separate account for each domain, which will give you the opportunity to start a web hosting reseller business. In case you do not pick any Control Panel, you will receive your server with CentOS only, as the software that comes with the Control Panels won't be installed. We also provide you with regular OS updates included in our own Managed Services package, so you won't need to invest effort and time downloading and setting up the most recent and most protected software on the dedicated server.
