The precise truth about the cloud web hosting solution

Essentially, the actual cloud web site hosting platform serves separate hosting services such as disk space, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, web hosting CP, backup, etc., on independent sets of avant-garde web servers. Each separate service pack creates a cluster. All the servers in a cluster are devoted to serving solely the specific service and nothing aside from it. They will all work as one single web server, sharing out the service's load in practically equivalent proportions. If there is a genuine cloud web hosting service, there should be: a storage space cluster, a mail cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a webspace hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these autonomous service clusters will build the so-called cloud web site hosting platform.

The huge cloud web hosting hoax. Quite common these days.

There is so much speculation going around about cloud web hosting at present. As you can perceive,cloud hosting does not only appear complicated, but in reality it is extremely perplexing. Most of the people are not at all aware of what cloud hosting is. On the wings of this universal ignorance, the "cloud site hosting traders" speculate feverishly, just to secure the customer and his/her 5 bucks per month. What a shame! An enormous disgrace. This is because in the web hosting industry there are no regulations whatsoever. The domain industry has ICANN. The website hosting industry niche has no such regulative organization. This is the reason why the web space hosting corporations speculate and tell lies blatantly (quite bluntly, actually) to their customers. Particularly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's find out how much cloud hosting they actually can provide.

The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" hosting firms

If a cPanel-based web space hosting retailer has a cloud web page hosting solution at hand, which is quite unbelievable, many servers have to be secured. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that towards the end of this story. First off, let's examine what the cloud problems are. So, it's quite improbable for a cPanel hosting trader to keep the cloud webspace hosting system at hand, because of the fact that making one requires years. Even when time and the provision of a professional team are not an issue, loads of cash must be spent too. Heaps of cash. Moreover, cPanel is not open source. That's a great disadvantage.

The absence of open source cloud web hosting solutions

There are no open source cloud hosting solutions. There aren't any open source CP interfaces (operating with the cloud web site hosting system) as well. Hence, to have a cloud web space hosting platform at hand, in the first place you must construct one. In-house. In the second place, you must build the CP too.

Single server-based site hosting Control Panels

Today's popular web page hosting Control Panels like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are made to operate on a single web server only. All web page hosting services (disk storage, email, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, CP, backup, etc.) are being served simultaneously on a single web server where these respective single-server hosting systems and web site hosting Control Panels are installed.

The deficiency of open source web site hosting CPs

So, you have to construct an in-house built web hosting Control Panel that will work perfectly and to add it within the cloud system, as if it was an inbuilt part of it. Suitable instances of in-house created cloud hosting systems with in-house created web hosting CPs are: Heartland Web Hosting, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel

Cloud webspace hosting hardware equipment costs

The minimal investment needed, just for the cloud website hosting hardware equipment, amounts to somewhere between $60,000 USD and 80 thousand dollars. That's omitting the DDoS device, which is another fifteen-twenty thousand dollars. Now you realize how many cloud web space hosting platforms can be encountered out there... and, above all, why the web hosting sky is so turquoise... and nearly cloudless!
