CentOS in VPS

If you get one of our virtual private server plans, you will see CentOS as one of the Operating System possibilities on the registration page. You are able to choose to run either the 32-bit or the 64-bit version of CentOS, determined by the software that you intend to set up later. Unlike other Linux releases, CentOS supports different website hosting Control Panels as well, so you will be able to select Hepsia, cPanel or DirectAdmin, each of which can be installed during the VPS creation, as well as web server software, MySQL server software, etc. When you'd like to have a VPS for some other purpose or if you'd like to have different software on it, you will be able to order your server with no Control Panel and you'll get a machine with CentOS and the Apache web server software only.
