CentOS is an abbreviation for Community Enterprise Operating System. This is one of the leading Linux distributions for servers and it's regarded as being one of the most stable and risk-free Operating Systems out there. CentOS is open-source software, which means that you can personalize it in any way you see fit, adding and removing packages or changing the code of all of them. It is also free to distribute and use, so you will not need to pay any kind of license fees, meaning that the total price that you'll need to pay for a server making use of CentOS will be much lower than the price for a server working with another OS. What makes CentOS stand out among various other Linux releases is its huge developer society, which will help you find the reply to any kind of question or problem you have. In addition, each version that is released officially is supported for ten years, that's is much longer than with any other OS. This means regular protection and stability updates which provides a stable software setting for all of your web applications in the long run.

CentOS in VPS Web Hosting

CentOS is available with each and every virtual private server that we supply and you'll be able to select it through the order process from among several other Operating Systems. Depending on the software that you would like to set up and run, you can pick between the 32-bit and the 64-bit version then your new VPS will be all set shortly after that. CentOS supports all 3 hosting Control Panels which we provide - cPanel, DirectAdmin and Hepsia. This allows you to choose if you want to employ the server for your own sites and to manage it as a single large account, or if you want to be able to make a variety of hosting accounts and eventually resell them to other people. Of course, you may also order a VPS with no Control Panel and you will get a server with an Operating System and the Apache web server software, but no other thing on it, so you can set up just the software which you need for your applications.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers Hosting

You are able to obtain CentOS with each and every dedicated server that we supply, since 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS are some of the options that you are able to select on our registration page. CentOS supports all three web hosting Control Panels which we offer, therefore you're able to pick Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel to be installed on the server. The first is suitable for less experienced users that need a powerful web hosting solution, because a Hepsia-equipped server is controlled like one very large account, while the other two Control Panels will enable you to create multiple web hosting accounts on your server and even to resell the web hosting space. If you need CentOS without any additional software, you're able to choose a server setup with no Control Panel at all. After that you can add just the software that you need. We also offer a Managed Services upgrade, which includes weekly CentOS updates.
