CentOS is short for Community Enterprise OS. This is one of the leading Linux distributions for servers and it is well known as being one of the most dependable and safe Operating Systems available. CentOS is open-source software, which means that you are able to customize it in any way you see fit, adding and removing packages or modifying the code of any of them. It is also free to distribute and use, so you will not have to pay any kind of license fees, meaning that the overall price that you will have to pay for a server making use of CentOS will be lower as compared to the price for a server running some other OS. What makes CentOS stand out among other Linux releases is its huge developer society, that will help you find the answer to any question or problem you might have. What's more, each version which is released officially is supported for a decade, that's is a lot longer than with any alternative operating system. What this means is frequent protection and stability updates which provides a dependable software setting for all of your web applications in the long run.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

You're able to acquire CentOS with each dedicated server that we offer, because 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the OS are among the options which you'll be able to pick on the order page. CentOS is compatible with all three hosting Control Panels which we offer, so that you can pick Hepsia or cPanel to be installed on your server. The first one is appropriate for less experienced users who require a powerful website hosting solution, due to the fact that a Hepsia-equipped server is controlled like a very large account, whereas the other two Control Panels allow you to create numerous web hosting accounts on the server and even to resell the website hosting space. If you want CentOS with no additional software, you can select a server setup with no Control Panel at all. After that you can add just the software that you need. We also offer a Managed Services upgrade, that includes weekly CentOS updates.
