CentOS
Discover more about the CentOS Linux distribution and why it is the OS of choice for a lot of hosting providers.
CentOS is among the most preferred Linux-based server Operating Systems today. It's used by countless website hosting service providers, because it is very stable, reliable and secure, not to mention that it is freely customizable, because it is an open-source Operating System. CentOS is used for production servers, as it's also very quick and takes minimal system resources. Furthermore, you can install and run any web app, as long as it can run on a Linux computer system. When you use a CentOS-powered server, you're able to edit any part of your Operating System according to your requirements. The fact that CentOS is provided for free does mean that you'll have to pay just for your server, but not for any kind of license fees, which will reduce your overall expenses. A huge community of developers and users stands behind CentOS, therefore if you ever have any kind of problems, or you are simply unsure how to perform a particular task, you can find a solution in no time. An important advantage of the OS is also the fact that every release is officially supported and updated for no less than 10 years, so you'll always have a secure and reliable software environment.
CentOS in Dedicated Servers
When you need a dedicated server with CentOS, you can take advantage of the packages that we offer, since this Operating System is one of the options that you can select during the order process. Since the software that you would like to run can have specific system requirements, we have 32-bit and 64-bit releases of CentOS. CentOS works with different web hosting Control Panels, and if you acquire a dedicated server with our Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to manage the server like you're controlling a single very large account, whereas with cPanel you're able to have distinct accounts for the domain names that you host and can even start a reseller business, as the two Control Panels offer such a functionality. When you add our Managed Services upgrade, we'll also perform OS updates on a weekly basis and will ensure that your server is protected and has the most up-to-date software at all times, so as to ensure the best possible performance for your Internet sites.
