The precise truth about the cloud web site hosting service
Essentially, the authentic cloud web space hosting solution serves different hosting services like disk space, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web page hosting CP, backup, and so on, on independent stacks of leading edge servers. Each particular service set constitutes a cluster. All the web hosting servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving solely the given service and nothing else. They will all run as one single web server, sharing the service's load in approximately the same proportions. If there is an authentic cloud web hosting service, there has to be: a data storage cluster, a mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these separate service clusters will generate the so-called cloud site hosting system.
The big cloud hosting swindle. Very widespread at present.
There is so much confusion going around about cloud web hosting these days. As you can see,cloud hosting does not only sound perplexing, but in reality it is supremely perplexing. Most of the people are not at all aware of what cloud hosting is. On the wings of this common ignorance, the "cloud web hosting companies" speculate fervently, just to secure the client and his/her 5 dollars per month. What a disgrace! A vast disgrace. This is due to the fact that in the hosting industry there are no norms at all. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The web hosting industry has no such regulative body. This is the reason why the web site hosting firms speculate and tell lies blatantly (quite bluntly, actually) to their customers. Chiefly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's discover how much cloud hosting they actually can supply.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" site hosting firms
If a cPanel-based website hosting wholesaler has a cloud website hosting platform at hand, which is very unlikely, plenty of servers have to be obtained. Which is also not cheap. We will get back to that towards the end of this article. First off, let's see what the cloud problems are. So, it's quite unbelievable for a cPanel hosting firm to have the cloud site hosting system at hand, for fabricating one demands years. Even when time and the provision of highly qualified personnel are not a problem, lots of cash must be invested too. Heaps of cash. Plus, cPanel is not open source. That's an immense inconvenience.
The absence of open source cloud web hosting platforms
There are no open source cloud web hosting systems. There aren't any open source CP devices (working with the cloud web hosting solution) either. So, to have a cloud site hosting system at hand, in the first place you have to set up one. In-house. In the second place, you must build the web hosting CP as well.
One server-based website hosting Control Panels
Today's popular web site hosting Control Panels such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are set up to work on one server only. All webspace hosting services (data storage, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, hosting CP, backup, etc.) are being served at the same time on a single server where these specific single-server web page hosting systems and web site hosting Control Panels are installed.
The lack of open source site hosting Control Panels
So, you have to make a custom website hosting CP that will operate unproblematically and to include it within the cloud system, as if it was an inbuilt constituent of it. Proper instances of custom set up cloud web hosting systems with in-house made web hosting CPs are: WebHosting-Store.net, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud webspace hosting hardware equipment expenses
The minimum contribution required, just for the cloud web site hosting hardware equipment, amounts to somewhere between $60,000 and $80,000. That's omitting the DDoS apparatus, which is another $15-20,000. Now you do know how many cloud web space hosting platforms can be detected out there... and, above all, why the web hosting sky is so blue... and almost cloudless!
