CentOS is one of the most widely used Operating Systems for website hosting servers. It is one of the countless Linux releases in existence, yet what distinguishes it from the rest is the long-term support, which ensures that you will always have a reliable and secure Operating System. Every CentOS version that is released is supported for 10 years, which is considerably longer than with almost every other OS out there. CentOS also has a much larger developer community than other distributions, so if you experience any problem or have some questions, you're able to quickly get the details which you need. CentOS is considered to be among the best server Operating Systems, as it's very stable and protected, that makes it very reliable even when you host sensitive information. Since it is open-source, you're able to modify every part of it and customize it according to your requirements, not to mention that the overall cost for a CentOS-based server will be lower, since you won't need to pay license fees of any sort.

CentOS in VPS Servers

If you order one of our VPS server packages, you'll see CentOS as one of the Operating System choices on the signup page. You can choose to run either the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of CentOS, depending on the software that you want to install later. Unlike other Linux releases, CentOS supports different web hosting Control Panels as well, so you'll be able to choose Hepsia or cPanel, each of which can be installed throughout the VPS creation, along with web server software, MySQL server software, and so on. When you'd like to have a VPS for a different purpose or if you'd like to have different software on it, you will be able to order your server with no Control Panel and you will obtain a machine with CentOS and the Apache web server software only. With a CentOS-powered virtual server from us, you'll enjoy a protected and reliable web hosting service for all your websites.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

When you need a dedicated server with CentOS, you can take advantage of the plans that we supply, because this Operating System is on the list of options that you'll be able to select through the order process. Since the software that you wish to run may have specific system requirements, we have 32-bit and 64-bit versions of CentOS. CentOS is compatible with different web hosting Control Panels, so if you get a dedicated server with our Hepsia Control Panel, you are able to manage the server like you're controlling a single large account, and with cPanel you're able to have independent accounts for the domains that you host and can even start a reseller business, as both the Control Panels offer this a functionality. When you add our Managed Services upgrade, we'll also perform OS upgrades weekly and will make sure that your server is protected and has the most recent software at all times, in order to ensure the best possible performance for your Internet sites.
