How to Install VPSSIM Control Panel
VPSSIM (VPS SIMPLE) is a command line-based hosting control panel application, specifically for the installation and optimization of Nginx, PHP, and MariaDB on the CentOS Linux distribution. Unlike other control panels written in the PHP programming language that runs in a web browser, VPSSIM is accessed via SSH and does not run in the background (daemons, services) so that it does not use resources (CPU, RAM) when not in use.
VPSSIM is available in 2 versions, the first is the Personal version which can be obtained free of charge with limited features. The second, Business Version with prices starting at $ 6, 1 code register for 1 VPS, using 1 time code.
