The complete truth about the cloud hosting service

Actually, the genuine cloud web space hosting solution serves distinct hosting services such as disk storage, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting CP, backup, etc., on different hosts of very powerful servers. Each individual service pack makes a cluster. All the hosting servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving exclusively the particular service and nothing aside from it. They will all perform as one single server, sharing the service's load in practically the same proportions. If there is an authentic cloud web hosting service, there would be: a web space cluster, an email cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a CP cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these individual service clusters will beget the so-called cloud web hosting platform.

The great cloud web page hosting swindle. Quite common now.

There is so much misunderstanding going around about cloud web hosting at the moment. As you can see,cloud hosting does not only appear complicated, but in fact it is extremely complicated. The majority of the people are not at all aware of what cloud hosting is. On the wings of this universal unawareness, the "cloud site hosting suppliers" speculate fervently, just to secure the client and his/her five dollars a month. What a shame! A huge disgrace. This is because in the web hosting industry niche there are no statutes at all. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The web site hosting industry has no such self-governing body. This is the reason why the website hosting retailers speculate and tell lies blatantly (very directly, as a matter of fact) to their clients. Particularly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's ascertain how much cloud hosting they in fact can distribute.

The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" web site hosting providers

If a cPanel-based web hosting provider has a cloud webspace hosting platform at hand, which is quite unbelievable, a lot of web servers have to be bought. Which is also not inexpensive. We will get back to that towards the end of this story. But before we do, let's explore what the cloud problems are. So, it's very unlikely for a cPanel hosting provider to have the cloud hosting system at hand, because of the fact that building one requires years. Even when time and the provision of highly qualified personnel are not an issue, plenty of cash has to be invested as well. Stacks of cash. What's more, cPanel is not open source. That's a great downside.

The deficiency of open source cloud site hosting systems

There aren't any open source cloud webspace hosting platforms. There are no open source CP user interfaces (working with the cloud site hosting solution) as well. So, to have a cloud website hosting solution at hand, in the first place you must invent one. In-house. Secondly, you have to construct the hosting CP as well.

One server-based web space hosting Control Panels

Famous web hosting Control Panels like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are meant to operate on one web server exclusively. All web page hosting services (data storage, email, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting CP, backup, etc.) are being served concurrently on a single server where these respective one-server web hosting systems and web site hosting Control Panels are set up.

The shortage of open source site hosting CPs

So, you have to develop a custom website hosting Control Panel that will work impeccably and to incorporate it within the cloud system, as if it was an indelible part of it. Suitable examples of custom devised cloud hosting solutions with in-house developed site hosting CPs are: Owl Hosting, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel

Cloud web hosting hardware provision rates

The smallest investment wanted, just for the cloud hosting hardware equipment, is equivalent to somewhere between $60,000 and 80,000 dollars. That's excluding the DDoS tool, which is another $15-20,000 USD. Now you realize how many cloud site hosting platforms can be stumbled upon out there... and, in particular, why the hosting sky is so azure... and nearly cloudless!
