CentOS is one of the preferred Operating Systems for web hosting servers. It's one of the numerous Linux distributions out there, but what distinguishes it from all of the others is the long-term support, which ensures that you'll always have a stable and protected OS. Each CentOS version that is released is supported for a decade, that's considerably longer than with another OS out there. CentOS also has a much larger developer community than other distributions, so in case you encounter any problem or have any questions, you are able to promptly get the data which you need. CentOS is considered to be one of the best server Operating Systems, since it is very stable and protected, which makes it really reliable even if you host confidential data. Since it is open-source, you are able to modify every part of it and customize it according to your requirements, not to mention that the total cost for a CentOS-based server will be lower, because you won't have to pay license fees of any sort.

CentOS in VPS Web Hosting

You will be able to select CentOS for your new virtual private server throughout the signup process. We supply 32-bit and 64-bit versions, so as to give you the opportunity to choose the one that will be more suitable for the apps that you'd like to set up and run. CentOS supports a number of hosting Control Panels, so that you will have a choice between cPanel, Hepsia and DirectAdmin, depending on what you would like to do - to create a separate account for each domain name hosted on the server and even to start your reseller business, or to host all your domains together and control the entire server as a single account. You'll also have the choice to order your VPS with no Control Panel if you need a machine with CentOS, however without the additional software that comes with the Control Panels. This way, you can easily set up web or database servers which are different from the default ones that we offer.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers Hosting

You'll be able to obtain CentOS with each and every dedicated server that we offer, as 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are some of the options which you can pick on our registration page. CentOS supports all three hosting Control Panels which we provide, which means that you can select Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel to be set up on your server. The first one is suitable for less experienced users who want a powerful hosting solution, considering that a Hepsia-equipped server is managed like a single very large account, whereas the other two Control Panels will allow you to create a number of website hosting accounts on your server and even to resell the hosting space. If you want CentOS without any additional software, you're able to select a server setup with no Control Panel at all. You can then add only the software that you need. We also offer a Managed Services upgrade, which includes weekly CentOS updates.
