CentOS is one of the most widely used Operating Systems for web hosting servers. It's one of the many Linux releases available, however what differentiates it from all of the others is the long-term support, which guarantees that you'll always have a dependable and risk-free Operating System. Each CentOS version that is released is supported for 10 years, that's a lot longer than with another OS out there. CentOS also has a much more numerous developer community than other distributions, so if you encounter any problem or have any questions, you can rapidly find the data which you need. CentOS is considered to be among the best server Operating Systems, as it's very stable and protected, which makes it really reliable even when you host sensitive data. Because it is open-source, you'll be able to modify any part of it and personalize it according to your requirements, not to mention that the overall cost for a CentOS-based server will be lower, as you will not need to pay license fees of any sort.

CentOS in VPS Servers

If you order one of our VPS server plans, you'll see CentOS as one of the Operating System choices on the signup page. You will be able to decide to install either the 32-bit or the 64-bit version of CentOS, depending on the software that you would like to install later. In contrast to other Linux releases, CentOS supports different web hosting Control Panels as well, so you will be able to pick Hepsia, cPanel or DirectAdmin, each of which can be installed throughout the VPS creation, along with web server software, MySQL server software, etc. When you'd like to have a VPS for a different purpose or if you'd like to install different software on it, you will be able to order the server without Control Panel and you will get a machine with CentOS and the Apache web server software only. With a CentOS-powered virtual server from us, you'll have a safe and reliable hosting service for all of your Internet sites.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

When you need a dedicated server with CentOS, you can take advantage of the plans that we supply, as this OS is on the list of options which you can pick during the registration process. As the software that you need to use may have specific system requirements, we have 32-bit and 64-bit releases of CentOS. CentOS is compatible with a variety of website hosting Control Panels, so if you acquire a dedicated server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you're able to control the server as if you're managing a single very large account, whereas with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you can have separate accounts for the domains that you host and can even start a reseller business, as both the Control Panels offer such a functionality. If you add our Managed Services upgrade, we will also perform OS updates every week and will ensure that your server is safe and has the most up-to-date software all the time, to ensure the optimum performance for your web sites.
