CentOS is an abbreviation for Community Enterprise Operating System. This is one of the leading Linux releases for servers and it is recognized as one of the most dependable and protected Operating Systems on the market. CentOS is open-source software, so you are able to customize it in whatever way you see fit, adding and removing packages or updating the code of all of them. It's also free to distribute and use, so you won't need to pay any kind of license fees, which means that the overall price that you will need to pay for a server making use of CentOS will be much lower than the price for a server working with some other OS. What makes CentOS stand out among other Linux releases is its huge developer society, that will help you discover the reply to any kind of question or problem you might have. Furthermore, each version which is released officially is supported for ten years, that is is longer than with any other operating system. What this means is ordinary protection and stability updates which provides a stable software setting for all of your web apps in the long run.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

You'll be able to obtain CentOS with each dedicated server that we offer, because 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS are some of the options that you'll be able to select on our order page. CentOS supports all three web hosting Control Panels that we offer, which means that you will be able to choose Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel to be set up on the server. The first is appropriate for less experienced users who need a powerful website hosting solution, due to the fact that a Hepsia-equipped server is controlled like one large account, whereas the other two Control Panels will allow you to set up various website hosting accounts on your server and even to resell the web hosting space. If you need CentOS without any additional software, you will be 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, that features weekly CentOS updates.
