CentOS in VPS Servers

VPS server packages, you'll see CentOS as one of the Operating System selections on the signup page. You're able to decide to set up either the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of CentOS, determined by the software that you wish to install later. Unlike other Linux distributions, CentOS supports different web hosting Control Panels as well, so you can choose Hepsia, cPanel or DirectAdmin, each of which can be installed throughout the VPS creation, along with web server software, MySQL server software, and so on.
