CentOS in VPS Servers

CentOS is accessible with each and every VPS server that we offer and you'll be able to select it during the order process from among a few other Operating Systems. Depending on the software that you'd like to install and run, you are able to choose between the 32-bit and the 64-bit version then your new VPS will be online soon after that. CentOS supports all the three website hosting Control Panels that we offer - cPanel, DirectAdmin and Hepsia. This will help you choose if you would like to use the server for your personal Internet sites and to manage it as one large account, or if you want to be able to set up various hosting accounts and eventually resell them to others. Of course, you can also obtain a VPS without any Control Panel and you will get a server with an Operating System and the Apache web server software, but no other thing on it, so you can set up only the software that you want for your apps.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

CentOS is one of the Operating Systems that we provide with our dedicated server packages. Throughout the signup process, you'll be able to select from the 32-bit and the 64-bit release of the OS and ensure that the software environment on your new server matches the specifications of the applications that you wish to set up. Compared to other Operating Systems, CentOS will also allow you to choose from various hosting Control Panels, based on what you need the server for. With Hepsia, for example, you can manage the whole server like just a single account irrespective of the number of domain names which you host, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you're able to generate a different account for each and every domain name, which will give you the opportunity to start a web hosting reseller business. If you don't choose any Control Panel, you'll get your server with CentOS only, since the software that comes with the Control Panels won't be installed. We also provide you with regular OS updates included in our own Managed Services package, so you will not need to devote effort and time downloading and installing the most recent and most protected software on the dedicated server.
