CentOS is one of the most preferred Linux-based server Operating Systems today. It is employed by various web hosting suppliers, because it is very stable, reliable and secure, not to mention that it can be customized freely, since it's an open-source OS. CentOS is used for production servers, as it is also very fast and takes negligible system resources. Furthermore, you are able to set up and run any web application, provided that it can operate on a Linux machine. When you use a CentOS-powered server, you'll be able to modify any part of the Operating System in accordance with your specifications. The fact that CentOS is free of charge does mean that you will have to pay for your server, but not for any kind of license fees, which will minimize your overall expenses. A large group of developers and users is behind CentOS, and in case you ever encounter any kind of problems, or you're simply unsure how to perform a specific task, you will be able to discover a solution very quickly. A significant advantage of the OS is also the fact that each and every version is officially supported and updated for at least ten years, so that you'll always have a safe and stable software environment.

CentOS in VPS Hosting

CentOS is among the Operating System choices provided by our Linux VPS hosting. You will get a fast, risk-free and dependable machine along with a 32- or 64-bit OS, depending on the selection that you've made during the registration process. You'll also be able to pick from the Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin hosting Control Panels - something, that is not possible with other Linux distributions. These options provide you with the opportunity to decide what you would like to do with the VPS - to host your websites and to take care of the whole server as a single very powerful account, or to generate a number of accounts and provide access to other people if, for instance, you wish to start a website hosting reseller business. In case you are more experienced and you want a server with CentOS, but without the extra software that's usually installed on it, you can purchase a VPS without Control Panel. This will enable you to entirely customize the software environment for your Internet sites.

CentOS in Dedicated Web Hosting

You'll be able to acquire CentOS with each dedicated server that we provide, since 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS are among the options that you'll be able to pick on the registration page. CentOS supports all three hosting Control Panels which we offer, so you're able to choose Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel to be set up on the server. The first one is appropriate for less experienced users who need a powerful web hosting solution, considering that a Hepsia-equipped server is controlled like one large account, while the other two Control Panels will allow you to create multiple web hosting accounts on your server and even to resell the website hosting space. If you want CentOS with no additional software, you will be able to choose a server setup with no Control Panel at all. Then you can add only the software that you need. We also offer a Managed Services upgrade, which includes weekly CentOS updates.
