CentOS is short for Community Enterprise OS. This is one of the top Linux distributions for servers and it's recognized as one of the most stable and safe Operating Systems on the market. CentOS is open-source software, so you'll be able to personalize it in any way you see fit, adding and removing packages or changing the code of any of them. It's also free to distribute and use, so you won't have to pay any kind of license fees, which means that the overall price that you will need to pay for a server running CentOS will be more affordable as compared to the price for a server working with an alternative OS. What makes CentOS unique among other Linux releases is its huge developer society, that will help you discover the reply to any question or problem you have. In addition, each version which is released officially is supported for 10 years, which is longer than with any alternative operating system. This means regular protection and stability updates that provides a reliable software environment for all of your web apps in the long run.

CentOS in VPS Web Hosting

You can select CentOS for your brand new virtual private server through the sign-up process. We supply 32-bit and 64-bit releases, so as to give you the opportunity to choose the one which will be more suitable for the apps that you wish to set up and manage. CentOS supports different hosting Control Panels, and you will have a choice between cPanel and Hepsia, depending on what you'd like to do - to create a separate account for each and every domain hosted on your server and even to start your very own reseller business, or to host all your domain names together and control the entire server as one single account. You will also have the choice to purchase your VPS without Control Panel if you need a machine with CentOS, yet with no extra software which comes with the Control Panels. This way, you can set up web or database servers that are different from the standard ones that we offer.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers Hosting

CentOS is among the Operating Systems that we offer with our dedicated server plans. During the signup process, you can pick from the 32-bit and the 64-bit version of the OS and ensure that the software environment on your new server matches the requirements of the applications that you wish to install. In contrast to other Operating Systems, CentOS will also allow you to choose from various web hosting Control Panels, according to what you need the server for. With Hepsia, for instance, you're able to manage the server like just a single account irrespective of the number of domains which you host, while with cPanel you will be able to make an individual account for each domain name, that can give you the opportunity to start a hosting reseller business. If you do not pick any Control Panel, you will get the server with CentOS only, as the software that comes with the Control Panels won't be installed. We also provide regular OS updates as part of our Managed Services package, so you will not need to spend time and effort downloading and setting up the most current and most protected software on your dedicated server.
