CentOS is short for Community Enterprise OS. This is one of the best Linux distributions for servers and it's recognized as being one of the most reliable and safe Operating Systems out there. CentOS is open-source software, so you are able to customize it in any way you see fit, adding and removing packages or changing the program code of all of them. It is also free to distribute and use, so you will not need to pay any license fees, which means that the total price that you'll need to pay for a server running CentOS will be much lower as compared to the price for a server working with some other OS. What makes CentOS unique among other Linux distributions is its huge developer community, that will help you get the answer to any question or problem you have. Furthermore, each version that is released officially is supported for ten years, which is a lot longer than with any alternative operating system. What this means is frequent security and stability updates which will provide a dependable software setting for your web applications in the long run.

CentOS in Dedicated Hosting

When you need a dedicated server with CentOS, you can take advantage of the plans that we supply, because this Operating System is on the list of options that you will be able to select during the order process. Since the software that you need to use may have specific system requirements, we have 32-bit and 64-bit versions of CentOS. CentOS is compatible with a variety of web hosting Control Panels, and if you obtain a dedicated server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to manage the server as if you're managing one large account, and with cPanel you will be able to have different accounts for the domain names that you host and can even start a reseller business, as both the Control Panels feature such a functionality. If you add our Managed Services upgrade, we'll also perform OS upgrades every week and will ensure that your server is safe and it has the latest software at all times, to guarantee the best performance for your Internet sites.
