Welcome! In this article, we’ll guide you through installing the CentOS 7 operating system on your VPS server. CentOS 7 is a stable and reliable Linux distribution, perfectly suited for server environments. Let’s get started!

The first step is to connect to your VPS server via SSH. Use an SSH client, such as Putty. Enter your server’s IP address, username, and password.
