What Does AlmaLinux Server Management Cover?
AlmaLinux exists because CentOS stopped being the stable, long-term-support distro it used to be. Built from RHEL sources, it's compatible with nearly the entire Linux application ecosystem, and unlike Debian or Ubuntu, it's fully supported by cPanel, Plesk, and DirectAdmin. AlmaLinux server management covers firewall configuration, kernel updates, and full hardening, whether you're running a hosting server, mail server, or database server.
If you're setting up a brand-new server, this plan covers initial configuration too. For panel-specific work on top of the OS layer, see our cPanel, Plesk, and DirectAdmin plans.
