The complete truth about the cloud web page hosting service
In general, the actual cloud web site hosting solution serves separate hosting services such as storage space, electronic mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, Control Panel, backup, etc., on different stacks of leading edge servers. Each specific service set makes a cluster. All the hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving exclusively the specific service and nothing apart from it. They will all perform as one single server, sharing the service's load in approximately identical proportions. If there is a real cloud web hosting service, there would be: a storage space cluster, an electronic mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a web hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these independent service clusters will constitute the so-called cloud web hosting platform.
The huge cloud hosting fraud. Very popular at the moment.
There is so much speculation revolving around about cloud web hosting now. As you can see,cloud hosting does not only appear perplexing, but in fact it is excessively perplexing. Most of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. Based on this common ignorance, the "cloud web hosting merchandisers" speculate fervently, just to get hold of the client and his/her 5 dollars a month. What a shame! A big shame. This is due to the fact that in the webspace hosting business there are no bylaws at all. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The web page hosting industry has no such supervising organization. That is the reason why the site hosting traders speculate and tell lies openly (quite directly, actually) to their customers. Notably the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's discover how much cloud hosting they in fact can supply.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" web page hosting merchandisers
If a cPanel-based site hosting vendor has a cloud web space hosting solution at hand, which is quite unlikely, loads of web servers have to be purchased. Which is also not inexpensive. We will return to that at the end of this article. First off, let's find out what the cloud predicaments are. So, it's very unlikely for a cPanel hosting company to keep the cloud web site hosting platform at hand, as setting up one takes years. Even when time and the provision of a professional staff are not a predicament, lots of cash must be spent too. Piles of money. Moreover, cPanel is not open source. That's an immense drawback.
The absence of open source cloud web page hosting platforms
There aren't any open source cloud web hosting platforms. There aren't any open source webspace hosting Control Panel GUIs (functioning with the cloud website hosting solution) as well. Hence, to have a cloud web site hosting system at hand, first you must develop one. In-house. Second of all, you have to invent the web hosting Control Panel as well.
Single server-based website hosting Control Panels
Modern webspace hosting Control Panels such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are built to operate on a single web server only. All web page hosting services (web space, email, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, Control Panel, backup, and so on) are being served simultaneously on one single server where these given one-server webspace hosting systems and hosting CPs are set up.
The lack of open source web site hosting CPs
So, you have to make an in-house built web site hosting CP that will work impeccably and to integrate it within the cloud platform, as if it was an ingrained component of it. Proper instances of in-house built cloud hosting solutions with custom constructed web space hosting Control Panels are: WebHost-ing.com, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud site hosting hardware provision costs
The smallest contribution demanded, only for the cloud webspace hosting hardware provision, equals somewhere between sixty thousand dollars and 80,000 USD. That's excluding the DDoS appliance, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you realize how many cloud webspace hosting platforms can be found out there... and, in particular, why the web hosting sky is so turquoise... and almost unclouded!
