CentOS in VPS

CentOS is available with each and every virtual private server that we provide 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 need to set up and run, you'll be able to choose between the 32-bit and the 64-bit version and then your new VPS will be installed and operating shortly after that. CentOS supports all three web hosting Control Panels that we supply - cPanel, DirectAdmin and Hepsia. This enables you to choose if you'd like to employ the server for your own Internet sites and to control it as one large account, or if you want to be able to set up multiple hosting accounts and eventually resell them to other people. Of course, you may also get a VPS without any Control Panel and you'll get a server with an Operating System and the Apache web server software, but no other thing on it, so you can install only the software that you need for your apps.

CentOS in Dedicated Hosting

You can obtain CentOS with each and every dedicated server which we offer, since 32-bit and 64-bit releases of the OS are some of the options which you are able to select on the registration page. CentOS is compatible with all three web hosting Control Panels that we provide, therefore you can choose Hepsia, DirectAdmin or cPanel to be set up on your server. The first is appropriate for less experienced users who require a powerful website hosting solution, because a Hepsia-equipped server is controlled like a large account, whereas the other two Control Panels will allow you to generate various website hosting accounts on your server and even to resell the website hosting space. If you want CentOS with no additional software, you're able to choose a server setup without Control Panel at all. Then you can add only the software that you need. We also offer a Managed Services upgrade, that includes weekly CentOS updates.
