CentOS is among the most sought after Linux-based server Operating Systems out there. It's preferred by lots of web hosting providers, because it is very stable, reliable and secure, not to mention that it is freely customizable, because it is an open-source OS. CentOS is used for production servers, because it is also really quick and takes negligible system resources. Also, you can install and run any kind of web application, provided that it can function on a Linux equipment. When you use a CentOS-powered server, you're able to modify any part of your Operating System according to your specifications. The fact that CentOS is free also means that you will have to pay for your server, but not for any kind of license fees, which will reduce your overall expenses. A large group of developers and users is behind CentOS, therefore in case you ever experience any kind of problems, or you are simply unsure how to perform a specific task, you will be able to discover a solution right away. An important benefit of the OS is also the fact that every release is officially supported and updated for a minimum of 10 years, so that you'll always have a safe and reliable software environment.

CentOS in VPS Servers

CentOS is available with every single VPS server that we provide and you'll be able to select it during the order process from among a couple of other Operating Systems. Depending on the software which you'd like to set up and run, you can select between the 32-bit and the 64-bit version then your new VPS will be online soon after that. CentOS supports all the three hosting Control Panels that we provide - cPanel, DirectAdmin and Hepsia. This allows you to choose if you would like to use the server for your web sites and to manage it as one large account, or if you want to be able to make multiple web hosting accounts and resell them to others. Of course, you can also order a VPS without any Control Panel and you will get a server with an OS and the Apache web server software, but no other thing on it, so you can set up just the software which you want for your apps.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

When you need a dedicated server with CentOS, you can take advantage of the packages that we offer, since this OS is on the list of options that you are able to pick through the order process. As the software that you need to run may have specific system requirements, we have 32-bit and 64-bit versions of CentOS. CentOS is compatible with various website hosting Control Panels, which means that if you acquire a dedicated server with our Hepsia Control Panel, you are able to control the server as if you're controlling a single large account, whereas with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you are able to have independent accounts for the domains which you host and can even start a reseller business, since both the Control Panels offer such a functionality. If you add the Managed Services upgrade, we'll also perform OS upgrades on a weekly basis and will make sure that your server is secure and it has the latest software all the time, so as to guarantee the optimum performance for your websites.
