CentOS is among the most popular Linux-based server Operating Systems on the market. It is preferred by numerous website hosting service providers, because it is very stable, secure and reliable, not to mention that it can be customized freely, because it's an open-source Operating System. CentOS is used for production servers, for the reason that it is also very fast and takes negligible resources. What's more, you are able to set up and run any web application, provided that it can run on a Linux equipment. When you use a CentOS-powered server, you will be able to change any part of your Operating System according to your requirements. The fact that CentOS is free also means that you'll need to pay just for your server, and not for any license fees, that will decrease your overall expenses. A vast community of developers and users is behind CentOS, so in case you ever encounter any kind of problems, or you are simply not sure how to perform a certain task, you will be able to find a solution in no time. An important benefit of the OS is also the fact that each version is officially supported and updated for no less than 10 years, so you'll always have a secure and stable software environment.

CentOS in VPS Servers

CentOS is one of several Operating System choices provided by our VPS servers. You will get an efficient, secure and reliable machine using a 32- or 64-bit OS, based on the selection that you've made during the registration process. You may also choose from the Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin hosting Control Panels - something, which is not possible with the other Linux distributions. These options give you the opportunity to choose what you'd like to do with the VPS - to host your websites and to take care of the entire server as one very powerful account, or to create many different accounts and provide access to others if, for example, you intend to start a web hosting reseller business. In case you're more experienced and you want a server with CentOS, yet without the additional software that's usually installed on it, you are able to get a VPS without Control Panel. This allows you to fully customize the software environment for your sites.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

When you decide to get one of the dedicated server plans that we supply, you'll be able to select the CentOS Operating System for your machine. As it is very light and fast, you will be able to utilize all of the resources for your Internet site. CentOS supports all three hosting Control Panels that we offer - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. This way, you are able to use the dedicated server for virtually any purpose - to host your personal websites in a single account, to set up separate Control Panels for each and every domain name or even to resell website hosting plans to other people. You can also purchase a server with no Control Panel and set up any custom-made software that you need, in place of the default applications that we install on each machine that is ordered with a Control Panel. When you add the optional Managed Services bundle throughout the registration process or at any later time, we'll perform weekly CentOS updates besides all the other things that are included in the bundle.
