CentOS is one of the preferred Operating Systems for web hosting servers. It's one of the countless Linux releases in existence, yet what distinguishes it from all of the rest is its long-term support, which guarantees that you'll always have a stable and risk-free Operating System. Every CentOS version that is released is supported for a decade, that is longer than with almost every other OS available on the market. CentOS also has a much larger developer community than other distributions, therefore in case you encounter any problem or have any questions, you are able to quickly discover the details which you need. CentOS is regarded as among the best server Operating Systems, because it is very stable and secure, which makes it really reliable even when you host sensitive info. Considering that it is open-source, you can 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, as you won't have to pay license fees of any sort.
CentOS in VPS
You can pick CentOS for your brand new virtual private server during the registration process. We provide 32-bit and 64-bit versions, so as to give you the option to pick the one which will be more suitable for the applications that you intend to set up and work with. CentOS supports multiple hosting Control Panels, so you will have a choice between cPanel, Hepsia and DirectAdmin, depending on what you would like to do - to make a separate account for each domain name hosted on the server and even to start your reseller business, or to host all your domain names at the same time and control the entire server as one single account. You'll also have the option to acquire your VPS without Control Panel in case you need a machine with CentOS, but devoid of the additional software which comes with the Control Panels. In this way, you'll be able to set up web or database servers which are different from the standard ones that we supply.
CentOS in Dedicated Hosting
If you need a dedicated server with CentOS, you can take advantage of the plans that we supply, as this Operating System is on the list of options that you're able to select through the registration process. As the software that you want to use can have specific system requirements, we have 32-bit and 64-bit versions of CentOS. CentOS supports a number of web hosting Control Panels, and if you get a dedicated server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you are able to manage the server as if you're managing a single large account, and with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you can have distinct accounts for the domain names that you host and can even start a reseller business, as both the Control Panels feature such a functionality. In case you add our Managed Services upgrade, we'll also perform OS upgrades on a weekly basis and will ensure that your server is secure and it has the most recent software at all times, to ensure the optimum performance for your web sites.
