The precise truth about the cloud web hosting service

Essentially, the authentic cloud hosting platform serves different hosting services such as disk storage, email, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, web page hosting CP, backup, etc., on autonomous groups of cutting-edge servers. Each single service set produces a cluster. All the web hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving only the particular service and nothing beside it. They will all perform as one web server, sharing out the service's load in almost the same proportions. If there is an authentic cloud web hosting service, there has to be: a disk space cluster, an electronic mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a web page hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these different service clusters will create the so-called cloud web hosting platform.

The enormous cloud web page hosting trick. Quite common at the moment.

There is so much misunderstanding circulating around about cloud web hosting now. As you can perceive,cloud hosting does not only sound complicated, but in reality it is very perplexing. Most of the people are not at all aware of what cloud hosting is. On the wings of this widespread unawareness, the "cloud web page hosting providers" speculate fiercely, just to secure the customer and his/her five bucks a month. What a disgrace! A great disgrace. This is because in the web space hosting industry there are no ordinances at all. The domain name industry has ICANN. The site hosting industry niche has no such legislative body. That is why the webspace hosting wholesalers speculate and lie blatantly (very directly, as a matter of fact) to their clients. Chiefly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's see how much cloud hosting they in fact can supply.

The truth about the cPanel-based "cloud" website hosting merchandisers

If a cPanel-based web hosting supplier has a cloud hosting platform at hand, which is quite improbable, loads of hosting servers have to be purchased. Which is also not inexpensive. We will return to that towards the end of this story. First off, let's examine what the cloud complications are. So, it's very improbable for a cPanel hosting provider to keep the cloud hosting platform at hand, since developing one demands years. Even when time and the provision of experienced personnel are not a predicament, lots of cash has to be spent as well. Heaps of money. In addition, cPanel is not open source. That's an immense obstacle.

The shortage of open source cloud web hosting systems

There aren't any open source cloud web space hosting environments. There are no open source web page hosting Control Panel GUIs (operating with the cloud web page hosting system) either. Hence, to have a cloud site hosting system at hand, first of all you must set up one. In-house. In the second place, you must create the web hosting CP as well.

Single server-based web site hosting CPs

Popular web hosting Control Panels like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are created to work on one server only. All hosting services (data storage, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, web hosting CP, backup, and so on) are being served concurrently on one web server where these respective single-server site hosting platforms and web page hosting Control Panels are set up.

The absence of open source web hosting Control Panels

So, you have to develop an in-house built website hosting Control Panel that will operate faultlessly and to incorporate it within the cloud system, as if it was a natural constituent of it. Good examples of in-house constructed cloud hosting platforms with custom manufactured web hosting CPs are: NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel

Cloud web hosting hardware equipment expenses

The minimal contribution demanded, just for the cloud hosting hardware equipment, amounts to somewhere between sixty thousand dollars and 80,000 USD. That's excluding the DDoS apparatus, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you realize how many cloud hosting systems can be discovered out there... and, above all, why the hosting sky is so azure... and nearly cloudless!
