CentOS is an abbreviation for Community Enterprise OS. This is one of the best Linux releases for servers and it's recognized as being one of the most reliable and protected Operating Systems available. CentOS is open-source software, which means that you are able to personalize it in whatever way you see fit, adding and removing packages or modifying the code of any of them. It's also free to distribute and use, so you won't need to pay any kind of license fees, meaning that the overall price that you will have to pay for a server running CentOS will be more affordable than the price for a server working with another OS. What makes CentOS unique among other Linux releases is its huge developer society, that will help you find the answer to any kind of question or problem you may have. What's more, each version which is released officially is supported for ten years, that's is much longer than with any other operating system. This means frequent security and stability updates which will provide a reliable software setting for your web apps in the long run.

CentOS in VPS Servers

You'll be able to pick CentOS for your new VPS server during the registration process. We supply 32-bit and 64-bit versions, to give you the chance to select the one that is more suitable for the applications that you intend to set up and work with. CentOS supports a number of hosting Control Panels, and you will have a choice between cPanel and Hepsia, depending on what you wish to do - to create a separate account for each and every domain name hosted on your server and even to start your reseller business, or to host all your domains at the same time and control the entire server as one single account. You will also have the option to buy the VPS without any Control Panel if you need a machine with CentOS, yet without the additional software that is provided with the Control Panels. In this way, you're able to install web or database servers that are different from the default ones that we provide.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

You will be able to obtain CentOS with each and every dedicated server that we offer, because 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are among the options that you will be able to select on our registration page. CentOS supports all three website hosting Control Panels that we offer, therefore you will be able to choose Hepsia or cPanel to be set up on your server. The first one is appropriate for less experienced users who need a powerful hosting solution, because a Hepsia-equipped server is managed like one large account, while the other two Control Panels enable you to create a number of web hosting accounts on the server and even to resell the website hosting space. If you need CentOS with no additional software, you will be able to select a server setup without Control Panel at all. Then you can add only the software that you need. We also offer a Managed Services upgrade, that features weekly CentOS updates.
