1. Install epel and IUS rpm package sources. 

# yum install epel-release -y
# yum install -y https://centos7.iuscommunity.org/ius-release.rpm

Note:

IUS rpm package sources:

rpm -ivh https://rhel5.iuscommunity.org/ius-release.rpm     # RHEL 5
rpm -ivh https://rhel6.iuscommunity.org/ius-release.rpm     # RHEL 6
rpm -ivh https://rhel7.iuscommunity.org/ius-release.rpm     # RHEL 7
