CentOS in VPS Web Hosting

CentOS is available with every single virtual private server that we supply and you'll be able to select it during the order process from among several other Operating Systems. Determined by the software which you would like to set up and run, you can select between the 32-bit and the 64-bit version and your new VPS will be all set soon after that. CentOS supports all 3 hosting Control Panels which we offer - cPanel, DirectAdmin and Hepsia. This will allow you to choose if you wish to use the server for your very own sites and to manage it as one large account, or if you want to be able to generate a variety of website hosting accounts and eventually resell them to others. Of course, you may also buy a VPS without Control Panel and you will get a server with an Operating System and the Apache web server software, but nothing else on it, so you can set up just the software which you want for your apps.

You can also buy a server without a Control Panel and set up any custom-made software which you need, instead of the default applications that we install on each machine that is ordered with a Control Panel. If you add the optional Managed Services bundle during the sign-up process or at any later time, we'll perform regular CentOS updates besides the other things which are part of the bundle.
