CentOS is an abbreviation for Community Enterprise OS. This is one of the best Linux releases for servers and it is well known as being one of the most reliable and safe Operating Systems out there. CentOS is open-source software, so you will be able to personalize it in whatever way you see fit, adding and removing packages or changing the code of all of them. It's also free to distribute and use, so you will not have to pay any 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 working with some other OS. What makes CentOS stand out among other Linux distributions is its huge developer community, that will help you find the reply to any question or problem you may have. What's even more, each version that's released officially is supported for a decade, that's is much longer than with any alternative operating system. What this means is routine safety and stability updates that provides a dependable software setting for your web applications in the long run.

CentOS in VPS Web Hosting

CentOS is accessible with each and every virtual private server that we supply and you can select it through the order process from among several other Operating Systems. Depending on the software which you'd like to set up and run, you are able to choose between the 32-bit and the 64-bit version and then your new VPS will be installed and operating shortly after that. CentOS supports all of the three website hosting Control Panels that we offer - cPanel, DirectAdmin and Hepsia. This allows you to choose if you'd like to employ the server for your own websites and to control it as one large account, or if you want to be able to generate multiple hosting accounts and resell them to other people. Of course, you may also order a VPS without any Control Panel and you will get a server with an OS and the Apache web server software, but nothing else on it, so that you can set up only the software which you need for your apps.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers Hosting

When you decide to purchase one of the dedicated server packages that we supply, you're able to choose the CentOS Operating System for your machine. Due to the fact that it is very light and fast, you will be able to utilize all of the system resources for your site. CentOS supports all 3 hosting Control Panels which we offer - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. This way, you'll be able to use the dedicated server for any purpose - to host all of your personal Internet sites in a single account, to set up separate Control Panels for each domain or even to resell website hosting plans to other people. You can also acquire a server devoid of Control Panel and set up any custom software which you need, in place of the default applications that we install on each machine that is ordered with a Control Panel. When you add the optional Managed Services bundle during the registration process or at any later time, we will perform weekly CentOS updates besides all the other things which are included in the bundle.
