CentOS Dedicated Server Hosting And Dedicated Server Plans
Advantages of CentOS Dedicated Server Hosting
Have your own ultra-stable and reliable CentOS dedicated server on hardware or a VM in our cloud. You are root, do whatever you want with it. No minimum term, no setup fee. Trust the most reliable service!
CentOS hosting is a free alternative to RedHat Enterprise Linux, perfect for the person that wants the stability but does not require the support options and cost that the RedHat branded product offers. CentOS is compiled from the same source code as RedHat Enterprise Linux, so it is 100% binary compatible with RedHat Enterprise Linux.
Our standard CentOS server platform is a high-performance, 1U or 2U high Supermicro chassis with your choice of processors such as Intel Quad-Core Xeon all the way up to 24 cores and larger. We have dedicated servers available from 8GB of RAM to 1TB of RAM and larger. All of our dedicated servers have switched 1Gbps (1Gbit) Ethernet connections. Customized configurations are available with larger amounts of RAM or 10Gbits network. We can also colocate your provided hardware. Other dedicated server hardware configurations are available.
All our Dedicated Server hosting packages are stable and secure, but also include monitoring for availability (pinged every 5 minutes). In the event that your server goes down, you will be paged and/or e-mailed at the same time as our NOC. This web-based system can also give you uptime statistics and you can review historical monitoring data for your servers. We can also monitor network-based services such as HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, SMTP, POP3, DNS, and others on your server for availability.
Please NOTE: RedHat has announced the end-of-life (EOL) for CentOS Linux with support for the final version ending in 2029. If you are looking for a Linux distro that is open source, equally stable, enterprise quality, production ready, free and community supported, please consider Rocky Linux or AlmaLinux OS.
