CentOS is an abbreviation for Community Enterprise Operating System. This is one of the leading Linux releases for servers and it is regarded as one of the most stable and protected Operating Systems on the market. CentOS is open-source software, which means that you'll be able to customize it in whatever way you see fit, adding and removing packages or altering the code of all of them. It's also free to distribute and use, so you won't have to pay any kind of license fees, meaning that the total price that you'll need to pay for a server running CentOS will be cheaper as compared to the price for a server working with an alternative OS. What makes CentOS unique among other Linux distributions is its huge developer society, which will help you get the reply to any kind of question or problem you have. Furthermore, each version that's released officially is supported for a decade, that is is much longer than with any alternative operating system. What this means is ordinary protection and stability updates that will provide a great software setting for all of your web apps in the long run.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

If you decide to order one of the dedicated server packages that we supply, you'll be able to choose the CentOS Operating System for your new machine. Since it is very light and efficient, you will be able to utilize all of the system resources for your Internet site. CentOS supports all of the 3 hosting Control Panels that we provide - Hepsia and cPanel. This way, you'll be able to use the dedicated server for any purpose - to host all of your personal Internet sites in a single account, to make separate Control Panels for each domain name or even to resell hosting plans to other people. You can also obtain a server devoid of Control Panel and set up any custom software that you need, instead of the default apps that we install on each machine that is ordered with a Control Panel. If you add the optional Managed Services bundle throughout the signup process or at any later time, we will perform regular CentOS updates besides the other things that are part of the bundle.
