What is CentOS?

CentOS (Community ENTerprise Operating System) aims to be a 100% compatible rebuild of RedHat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) versions, in full compliance with RedHat's redistribution requirements. It is for people who need an enterprise class OS without the cost of certification and support.

It closely resembles the look and feel of Fedora Core, but typically provides more widely-used versions of packages and applications. Package management is achieved via RPM or the YUM utility.

CentOS is an excellent choice for hosting resellers looking for an enterprise class distribution, stability, and well-tested and widely-used software.

CentOS VPS Hosting

Based on the CentOS 5.2 Final release, the base system includes the Yum package management system and is ready for installation of the applications you want. You also have the option of selecting certain pre-installed applications during the ordering process if you prefer not to self-install.

A CentOS VPS hosted at LYLIX is a great solution for your web hosting, email, development, and other Linux OS needs. Each installation is backed by the standard array of features found with every LYLIX VPS, including realtime data replication for high availability.

The VPS solution is completely scalable; if you're just starting out small you can begin with the basic resources, but as your activity and requirements grow, your VPS can be seemlessly upgraded, even up to a 1:1 "dedicated" VPS!
