CentOS in Dedicated Servers
CentOS is one of the Operating Systems which we supply with all our dedicated server packages. During the registration process, you'll be able to pick from the 32-bit and the 64-bit release of the OS and ensure that the software environment on your new server will meet the specifications of the apps that you'd like to set up. In contrast to other Operating Systems, CentOS also allows you to choose between various website hosting Control Panels, depending on what you need the server for. With Hepsia, for example, you can control the whole server like a single account whatever the number of domains which you host, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you are able to create a different account for each and every domain name, which will give you the opportunity to start a hosting reseller business. In case you don't select any Control Panel, you'll receive the server with CentOS only, since the software that comes with the Control Panels won't be installed. We also offer regular OS updates included in our own Managed Services package, so you will not have to devote time and effort downloading and installing the most recent and most protected software on the dedicated server.
