Definition:
CentOS (abbreviated from Community Enterprise Operating System) is a Linux distribution that attempts to provide a free, enterprise-class, community-supported computing platform which aims to be functionally compatible with its upstream source, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)

It means there is no subscription needed for the yum repos, updates etc.
Centos is very suitable for test systems, but for mission critical applications I strongly suggest a OS with support
