CentOS is an abbreviation for Community Enterprise OS. This is one of the leading Linux releases for servers and it is recognized as being one of the most dependable and secure Operating Systems out there. CentOS is open-source software, which means that you can personalize it in whatever way you see fit, adding and removing packages or changing the program code of any of them. It is also free to distribute and use, so you will not need to pay any kind of license fees, meaning that the total price that you'll have to pay for a server making use of CentOS will be cheaper than the price for a server running another OS. What makes CentOS stand out among other Linux distributions is its huge developer society, which will help you discover the answer to any kind of question or problem you may have. In addition, each version which is released officially is supported for ten years, which is longer than with any other OS. What this means is routine safety and stability updates that will provide a dependable software environment for all of your web applications in the long run.
CentOS in VPS Web Hosting
If you buy one of our virtual private server plans, you'll see CentOS as one of the Operating System choices on the sign-up page. You're able to choose to set up either the 32-bit or the 64-bit version of CentOS, according to the software that you would like to install later. In contrast to other Linux releases, CentOS supports different website hosting Control Panels as well, so you'll be able to select Hepsia, cPanel or DirectAdmin, each of which can be installed during the VPS creation, as well as web server software, MySQL server software, and so on. If you'd like to have a VPS for some other purpose or if you want different software on it, you are able to order your server with no Control Panel and you will obtain a machine with CentOS and the Apache web server software only. With a CentOS-powered virtual server from our company, you will enjoy a safe and reliable website hosting service for all your Internet sites.
CentOS in Dedicated Servers Hosting
When you need a dedicated server with CentOS, you can take advantage of the plans which we supply, due to the fact that this OS is one of the options that you will be able to select during the registration process. As the software that you intend to use can have specific system requirements, we have 32-bit and 64-bit releases of CentOS. CentOS supports numerous web hosting Control Panels, so if you get a dedicated server with our Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to control the server like you're controlling one very large account, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you will be able to have independent accounts for the domain names that you host and can even start a reseller business, as the two Control Panels offer this a functionality. When you add the Managed Services upgrade, we will also perform OS upgrades on a weekly basis and will ensure that your server is protected and it has the latest software all the time, to guarantee the best performance for your websites.
