CentOS
Find out more about the CentOS Linux distribution and why it's the OS preferred by several hosting providers.
CentOS is one of the preferred Operating Systems for website hosting servers. It's one of the many Linux releases available, yet what differentiates it from the rest is the long-term support, which ensures that you'll always have a stable and secure OS. Each CentOS version that is released is supported for ten years, that's considerably longer than with any other OS on the market. CentOS also has a much larger developer community than other distributions, so in the event you experience any problem or have any questions, you are able to quickly get the details which you need. CentOS is regarded as one of the best server Operating Systems, because it's very stable and secure, that makes it really reliable even if you host private info. Due to the fact that it is open-source, you'll be able to modify each and every part of it and customize it according to your requirements, not to mention that the overall cost for a CentOS-based server will be lower, because you won't need to pay license fees of any sort.

CentOS in Dedicated Hosting
If you decide to get one of the
dedicated server plans that we provide, you are able to choose the CentOS Operating System for your new machine. As it's very light and fast, you will be able to utilize all the resources for your site. CentOS supports all of the 3 web hosting Control Panels that we provide - Hepsia and cPanel. This way, you are able to use the dedicated server for any type of purpose - to host all your personal sites in a single account, to create separate Control Panels for each
domain name or even to resell web hosting plans to other people. You can also get a server without a Control Panel and set up any custom-made software which you need, in place of the default apps that we install on each machine that is ordered with a Control Panel. If you add the optional Managed Services bundle during the registration process or at any later time, we will perform regular CentOS updates besides all the other things which are included in the bundle.
