CentOS
Educate yourself about the CentOS Operating System. Learn why it is the preferred distro of Linux for a number of web hosting companies.
CentOS is short for Community Enterprise OS. This is one of the best Linux distributions for servers and it is well known as being one of the most stable and risk-free Operating Systems available. CentOS is open-source software, which means that you can customize it in any way you see fit, adding and removing packages or altering the code of any of them. It is also free to distribute and use, so you won't have to pay any kind of license fees, which means that the overall price that you will have to pay for a server making use of CentOS will be cheaper as compared to the price for a server running another OS. What makes CentOS stand out among other Linux releases is its huge developer society, which will help you discover the answer to any kind of question or problem you may have. Furthermore, each version which is released officially is supported for ten years, that is is longer than with any other operating system. What this means is routine safety and stability updates that will provide a reliable software environment for all of your web applications in the long run.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers
When you decide to get one of the
dedicated server packages that we provide, you are able to choose the CentOS Operating System for your machine. As it is very light and quick, you will be able to utilize all of the system resources for your site. CentOS supports all three hosting Control Panels that we supply - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. In this way, you'll be able to use the dedicated server for any kind of purpose - to host your personal websites in a single account, to make separate Control Panels for each and every
domain name or even to resell hosting plans to other people. Also, you can purchase a server devoid of Control Panel and install 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. If you add our optional Managed Services bundle throughout the signup process or at any later time, we will perform regular CentOS updates besides all the other things that are included in the bundle.
