Linux (CentOS 5.x) or Windows Server 2008 Hosting

Great hosting, whether linux or windows

One great reason to choose dedicated hosting is the control you gain over the operating system - and with EliteRAX Dedicated hosting you can choose Linux or Windows for your dedicated server. One the linux side we offer CentOS 5.x - and on the Windows side we offer Windows Server 2008. Simply choose which OS you want to use during the ordering process, and it'll be pre-installed on your new dedicated server, and be available for use within a few hours. We can also install other operating systems by request during the initial server setup, although some charges may apply.

Linux, putting the "L" in LAMP

Linux hosting is extremely popular - it's easy to manage remotely, incredibly stable, and when configured correctly very secure. For these reasons it is the "L" in LAMP hosting - an acronym for the common web hosting platform that consists of a Linux operating system, Apache web server software, MySQL database and the PHP scripting language. The LAMP platform has become very popular with free and open-source developers, with the result that there's an enormous amount of free web-based software available to install on a LAMP server - just check out our list of tutorials, most of which are open source LAMP-based projects.

If a dedicated server is more than you need, we also have a variety of linux-based VPS hosting plans over at our MaxVPS division - if you're looking for CentOS hosting MaxVPS has a plan for your needs!
