CentOS in VPS Web Hosting
You can pick CentOS for your brand new virtual private server throughout the registration process. We provide 32-bit and 64-bit versions, so as to give you the chance to select the one that will be more suitable for the applications that you want to install and run. CentOS supports a variety of web hosting Control Panels, and you will have a choice between cPanel, Hepsia and DirectAdmin, according to what you wish to do - to set up a separate account for each and every domain name hosted on your server and even to start your reseller business, or to host all of your domain names together and control the server as one single account. You'll also have the option to order your VPS without any Control Panel if you need a machine with CentOS, yet devoid of the additional software that is provided with the Control Panels. In this way, you can install web or database servers which are different from the standard ones that we provide.
CentOS in Dedicated Servers Hosting
If you need a dedicated server with CentOS, you can take advantage of the plans that we offer, because this Operating System is one of the options which you are able to choose through the registration process. As the software that you need to use may have specific system requirements, we have 32-bit and 64-bit releases of CentOS. CentOS works with various hosting Control Panels, so if you acquire a dedicated server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to control the server as if you're controlling a single large account, and with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you are able to have independent accounts for the domain names that you host and can even start a reseller business, since the two Control Panels offer such a functionality. If you add the Managed Services upgrade, we will also perform OS updates every week and will ensure that your server is protected and has the most up-to-date software all the time, so as to guarantee the best performance for your websites.
