CentOS is one of the preferred Operating Systems for hosting servers. It's one of the many Linux distributions in existence, yet what differentiates it from the others is the long-term support, which guarantees that you will always have a dependable and protected OS. Every CentOS version that is released is supported for 10 years, that's much longer than with another OS in existence. CentOS also has a much larger developer community than other distributions, therefore in case you experience any problem or have some questions, you'll be able to quickly discover the data that you need. CentOS is widely known as among the best server Operating Systems, due to the fact that it's very stable and protected, that makes it very reliable even when you host confidential information. Considering that it is open-source, you will be able to modify any part of it and personalize it according to your requirements, not to mention that the total cost for a CentOS-based server will be lower, since you will not need to pay license fees of any type.
CentOS in VPS Servers
If you order one of our VPS server plans, you will see CentOS as one of the Operating System options on the registration page. You are able to choose to set up either the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of CentOS, based on the software that you wish to install later. Unlike other Linux releases, CentOS supports different website hosting Control Panels as well, so you'll be able to pick Hepsia, cPanel or DirectAdmin, each of which can be installed through the VPS creation, as well as web server software, MySQL server software, and so on. If you'd like to have a VPS for another purpose or if you need different software on it, you will be able to order your server with no Control Panel and you'll acquire a machine with CentOS and the Apache web server software only. With a CentOS-powered virtual server from our company, you'll have a protected and reliable website hosting service for your websites.
