EPEL is short for Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux. It is officially translated as an additional software package for Enterprise Edition Linux. As the name suggests, he can expand your software library, saving a lot of time when installing a lot of software. For example, for the DoS Vulnerability in PHP that has been very popular recently, Bug 61461, you only need one command under EPEL to upgrade PHP to 5.9 to avoid re-coding.
We recommend that you first install this additional software package for the newly installed centos system!
