The complete truth about the cloud website hosting solution
Essentially, the genuine cloud web hosting solution serves individual hosting services such as storage space, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, web space hosting CP, backup, etc., on different sets of very powerful web servers. Each specific service set constitutes a cluster. All the web hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving only the given service and nothing beside it. They will all function as one single server, sharing out the service's load in nearly equal proportions. If there is a genuine cloud web hosting service, there must be: a disk storage cluster, an electronic mail cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a web page hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these individual service clusters will beget the so-called cloud website hosting system.
The great cloud web hosting swindle. Very modern at the moment.
There is so much misunderstanding going around about cloud web hosting these days. As you can see,cloud hosting does not only sound complicated, but in fact it is excessively perplexing. The majority of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. On the wings of this widespread unawareness, the "cloud webspace hosting traders" speculate strongly, just to get hold of the client and his/her 5 bucks per month. What a shame! An immense shame. This is because in the web space hosting business there are no tenets at all. The domain industry has ICANN. The hosting industry has no such regulative organization. That is why the website hosting companies speculate and lie overtly (quite directly, as a matter of fact) to their customers. Chiefly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's check how much cloud hosting they indeed can distribute.
The truth about the cPanel-based "cloud" web hosting distributors
If a cPanel-based web space hosting merchant has a cloud webspace hosting platform at hand, which is very unlikely, plenty of servers must be acquired. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that at the end of this article. But before we do, let's see what the cloud troubles are. So, it's very unlikely for a cPanel hosting vendor to keep the cloud site hosting system at hand, for inventing one requires years. Even when time and the provision of an expert team are not a predicament, lots of cash has to be invested as well. Mountains of money. In addition, cPanel is not open source. That's a huge inconvenience.
The deficiency of open source cloud site hosting systems
There are no open source cloud web page hosting solutions. There are no open source web site hosting Control Panel tools (running with the cloud web space hosting solution) either. Therefore, to have a cloud hosting system at hand, first you must construct one. In-house. In the second place, you must set up the web hosting CP too.
Single server-based Control Panels
Modern Control Panels such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are devised to function on one single web server exclusively. All web site hosting services (storage space, email, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, webspace hosting CP, backup, etc.) are being served concurrently on one web server where these specific one-server hosting platforms and web space hosting Control Panels are set up.
The absence of open source hosting CPs
So, you have to fabricate an in-house built hosting Control Panel that will perform unproblematically and to incorporate it within the cloud platform, as if it was an indelible part of it. Appropriate examples of custom set up cloud hosting solutions with in-house built hosting Control Panels are: iTechnologix Hosting, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud web site hosting hardware provision fees
The minimal investment needed, only for the cloud webspace hosting hardware equipment, is equivalent to somewhere between 60,000 dollars and 80,000 dollars. That's excluding the DDoS tool, which is another 15-20,000 USD. Now you realize how many cloud web space hosting solutions can be stumbled upon out there... and, especially, why the web hosting sky is so azure... and practically unclouded!
