CentOS
Find out more about the CentOS Linux distribution and why it's the OS preferred by several hosting companies.
CentOS is among the most sought after Linux-based server Operating Systems nowadays. It's employed by a lot of web hosting providers, as it is very stable, reliable and secure, not to mention that it can be customized freely, because it is an open-source Operating System. CentOS is used for production servers, because it is also really quick and takes minimal resources. On top of that, you'll be able to set up and run any kind of web app, provided that it can operate on a Linux machine. If you use a CentOS-powered server, you will be able to change any part of the Operating System according to your needs. The fact that CentOS is provided for free means that you will have to pay just for your server, but not for any license fees, which will minimize your overall expenses. A large team of developers and users is behind CentOS, and in case you ever experience any kind of problems, or you are simply unsure how to perform a certain task, you'll be able to discover a solution right away. A significant benefit of the OS is also the fact that each release is officially supported and updated for at least ten years, so that you will always have a secure and dependable software environment.
CentOS in Dedicated Web Hosting
When you decide to order one of the dedicated server packages that we offer, you can select the CentOS Operating System for your machine. As it's very light and efficient, you will be able to utilize all the system resources for your site. CentOS supports all 3 hosting Control Panels which we offer - Hepsia and cPanel. This way, you are able to use the dedicated server for any type of purpose - to host all of your personal websites in a single account, to set up separate Control Panels for each domain or even to resell website hosting packages to other people. You may also purchase a server devoid of Control Panel and install any custom software that you need, instead of the default apps that we install on each machine that is ordered with a Control Panel. When you add our optional Managed Services bundle throughout the sign-up process or at any later time, we'll perform regular CentOS updates besides the other things which are included in the bundle.
