The absolute truth about the cloud web page hosting service
Essentially, the actual cloud web site hosting platform serves different hosting services such as web space, email, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, site hosting CP, backup, etc., on separate groups of cutting-edge web servers. Each separate service pack forms a cluster. All the web hosting servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving solely the given service and nothing apart from it. They will all run as one web server, sharing out 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 email cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a web page hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these autonomous service clusters will compose the so-called cloud hosting platform.
The colossal cloud web page hosting scam. Very popular at present.
There is so much misunderstanding circulating around about cloud web hosting at the moment. As you can perceive,cloud hosting does not only seem complicated, but actually it is supremely complicated. Most of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. On the wings of this popular unawareness, the "cloud hosting distributors" speculate eagerly, just to get hold of the customer and his/her five bucks a month. What a disgrace! A huge disgrace. This is owing to the fact that in the web space hosting industry there are no rules whatsoever. The domain industry has ICANN. The web page hosting industry niche has no such supervising organization. That is the reason why the hosting distributors speculate and lie overtly (very bluntly, as a matter of fact) to their clients. Especially the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's ascertain how much cloud hosting they in fact can offer.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" webspace hosting suppliers
If a cPanel-based web space hosting retailer has a cloud site hosting solution at hand, which is quite improbable, plenty of web hosting servers have to be acquired. Which is also not inexpensive. We will get back to that towards the end of this article. But before we do, let's find out what the cloud problems are. So, it's quite improbable for a cPanel hosting vendor to have the cloud website hosting platform at hand, as fabricating one demands years. Even when time and the provision of expert personnel are not a problem, plenty of cash has to be spent too. Piles of money. Moreover, cPanel is not open source. That's a great drawback.
The deficiency of open source cloud web hosting systems
There are no open source cloud hosting platforms. There aren't any open source web page hosting CP user interfaces (functioning with the cloud webspace hosting system) either. Hence, to have a cloud website hosting platform at hand, first of all you must build one. In-house. Secondly, you have to build the web hosting Control Panel as well.
Single server-based web page hosting CPs
Popular webspace hosting Control Panels such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are developed to perform on a single web server solely. All web hosting services (web space, email, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, web page hosting CP, backup, and so on) are being served simultaneously on one web server where these specific single-server web site hosting platforms and web site hosting Control Panels are set up.
The absence of open source hosting Control Panels
So, you must fabricate a custom web hosting Control Panel that will function impeccably and to integrate it within the cloud platform, as if it was an indelible component of it. Proper examples of in-house created cloud hosting solutions with custom invented CPs are: NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud website hosting hardware provision fares
The minimum investment needed, only for the cloud site hosting hardware provision, equals somewhere between 60 thousand dollars and 80,000 USD. That's excluding the DDoS mechanism, which is another 15-20,000 dollars. Now you realize how many cloud web hosting systems can be discovered out there... and, especially, why the web hosting sky is so turquoise... and nearly cloudless!
