CentOS is one of the most widely used Operating Systems for web hosting servers. It's one of the countless Linux distributions available, yet what distinguishes it from all of the rest is its long-term support, which ensures that you will always have a reliable and safe OS. Each CentOS version that is released is supported for ten years, that is longer than with almost every other OS out there. CentOS also has a much larger developer community than other distributions, so in the event you experience any kind of problem or have some questions, you'll be able to promptly get the info that you need. CentOS is considered to be among the best server Operating Systems, because it is very stable and secure, that makes it really reliable even when you host sensitive information. Since 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, since you will not have to pay license fees of any type.

CentOS in VPS Servers

When you purchase one of our VPS server packages, you'll see CentOS as one of the Operating System options on the sign-up page. You can decide to install either the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of CentOS, determined by the software that you want to install later. Unlike other Linux distributions, CentOS supports different hosting Control Panels as well, so you will be able to pick Hepsia, cPanel or DirectAdmin, each of which can be installed through the VPS creation, along with web server software, MySQL server software, etcetera. When you need a VPS for a different purpose or if you'd like to have different software on it, you are able to order your server with no Control Panel and you'll get a machine with CentOS and the Apache web server software only. With a CentOS-powered virtual server from us, you'll enjoy a secure and reliable hosting service for your Internet sites.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

When you need a dedicated server with CentOS, you can take advantage of the plans that we offer, as this OS is one of the options that you will be able to select during the order process. As the software that you would like to use may have specific system requirements, we have 32-bit and 64-bit versions of CentOS. CentOS supports different web hosting Control Panels, which means that if you obtain a dedicated server with our Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to manage the server as if you're controlling a single large account, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you are able to have separate accounts for the domains which you host and can even start a reseller business, as the two Control Panels offer such a functionality. If you add the Managed Services upgrade, we will also perform OS upgrades every week and will make sure that your server is safe and has the latest software all the time, so as to guarantee the best performance for your sites.
