CentOS is short for Community Enterprise Operating System. This is one of the leading Linux releases for servers and it is regarded as one of the most reliable and secure Operating Systems available. CentOS is open-source software, so you'll be able to customize it in whatever way you see fit, adding and removing packages or modifying the code of any of them. It's also free to distribute and use, so you won't have to pay any license fees, meaning that the overall price that you'll need to pay for a server making use of CentOS will be cheaper than the price for a server working with an alternative OS. What makes CentOS stand out among various other Linux distributions is its huge developer society, which will help you get the reply to any kind of question or problem you may have. In addition, each version which is released officially is supported for ten years, that's is longer than with any other OS. This means ordinary safety and stability updates which will provide a reliable software environment for all of your web applications in the long run.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

If you need a dedicated server with CentOS, you can take advantage of the plans that we supply, due to the fact that this Operating System is one of the options that you will be able to choose through the registration process. Since the software that you would like to use may have specific system requirements, we have 32-bit and 64-bit versions of CentOS. CentOS is compatible with a variety of hosting Control Panels, and if you obtain a dedicated server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you can manage the server like you're managing one large account, and with cPanel you're able to have distinct accounts for the domains that you host and can even start a reseller business, since both the Control Panels offer such a functionality. If you add our Managed Services upgrade, we'll also perform OS updates every week and will make sure that your server is protected and has the most recent software at all times, so as to guarantee the best possible performance for your sites.
