Frequently Asked Questions

CentOS Stream Dedicated Server Hosting FAQ

Should I use CentOS Stream or AlmaLinux on a dedicated server?

Choose AlmaLinux for production workloads requiring exact RHEL binary compatibility.

CentOS Stream is slightly ahead of RHEL in package versions.

Is CentOS Stream stable for production dedicated servers?

CentOS Stream is enterprise-grade and suitable for many production workloads. Packages are tested before reaching Stream repositories. However, for applications requiring certified RHEL compatibility guarantees, AlmaLinux or Rocky Linux provide exact downstream RHEL rebuilds.

Does CentOS Stream support cPanel on dedicated servers?

cPanel compatibility with CentOS Stream varies. Check current cPanel documentation for support status. For guaranteed cPanel support on dedicated servers, AlmaLinux 8/9 or Rocky Linux 8/9 are recommended.
