CentOS is an abbreviation for Community Enterprise Operating System. This is one of the top Linux distributions for servers and it's recognized as being one of the most reliable and safe Operating Systems on the market. CentOS is open-source software, which means that you're able to personalize it in any way you see fit, adding and removing packages or updating the code of all of them. It's also free to distribute and use, so you won't need to pay any license fees, meaning that the overall price that you will have to pay for a server making use of CentOS will be much lower as compared to the price for a server working with some other OS. What makes CentOS stand out among other Linux releases is its huge developer community, that will help you get the reply to any kind of question or problem you have. What's even more, each version that is released officially is supported for ten years, which is longer than with any other OS. What this means is ordinary security and stability updates that will provide a great software environment for all your web applications in the long run.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

If you decide to order one of the dedicated server packages which we supply, you'll be able to choose the CentOS Operating System for your new machine. Due to the fact that it is very light and efficient, you will be able to utilize all of the system resources for your site. CentOS supports all 3 web hosting Control Panels that we offer - Hepsia and cPanel. Thus, you will be able to use the dedicated server for any kind of purpose - to host your personal sites in a single account, to make separate Control Panels for each and every domain name or even to resell web hosting plans to other people. You may also acquire a server without a Control Panel and set up any custom software that you need, in place of the default applications that we install on each machine that is ordered with a Control Panel. When you add the optional Managed Services bundle throughout the sign-up process or at any later time, we will perform weekly CentOS updates besides all the other things that are included in the bundle.
