The sheer truth about the cloud web site hosting service
In general, the real cloud web site hosting platform serves separate hosting services such as disk storage, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, webspace hosting CP, backup, etc., on different stacks of top-quality servers. Each individual service pack generates a cluster. All the servers in a cluster are devoted to serving solely the particular service and nothing aside from it. They will all run as one server, sharing the service's load in practically equal proportions. If there is a real cloud web hosting service, there should be: a data storage cluster, an email cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a web site hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these individual service clusters will generate the so-called cloud webspace hosting system.
The massive cloud website hosting hoax. Quite modern these days.
There is so much confusion circulating around about cloud web hosting today. As you can see,cloud hosting does not only appear perplexing, but actually it is excessively complicated. Most of the people are not at all aware of what cloud hosting is. Based on this widely spread unawareness, the "cloud web site hosting merchandisers" speculate strongly, just to get hold of the customer and his/her 5 dollars per month. What a shame! A huge disgrace. This is owing to the fact that in the website hosting business niche there are no laws whatsoever. The domain name industry has ICANN. The site hosting industry has no such legislative institution. This is the reason why the site hosting companies speculate and tell lies overtly (quite directly, actually) to their clients. Mainly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's find out how much cloud hosting they in reality can furnish.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" web page hosting merchandisers
If a cPanel-based web space hosting vendor has a cloud web site hosting platform at hand, which is quite unlikely, numerous hosting servers have to be bought. Which is also not inexpensive. We will return to that at the end of this story. First off, let's explore what the cloud problems are. So, it's quite improbable for a cPanel hosting vendor to have the cloud website hosting system at hand, as inventing one requires years. Even when time and the provision of a competent staff are not a predicament, loads of cash must be invested as well. Mountains of money. Furthermore, cPanel is not open source. That's a huge obstacle.
The lack of open source cloud hosting solutions
There are no open source cloud hosting solutions. There aren't any open source hosting CP instruments (working with the cloud hosting platform) as well. So, to have a cloud web site hosting solution at hand, first you must fabricate one. In-house. In the second place, you must make the Control Panel too.
Single server-based web space hosting Control Panels
Famous Control Panels such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are constructed to perform on one server only. All site hosting services (data storage, email, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web page hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on) are being served at the very same time on a single server where these respective one-server webspace hosting systems and web page hosting CPs are installed.
The shortage of open source site hosting Control Panels
So, you have to develop an in-house built CP that will run flawlessly and to include it within the cloud system, as if it was an ingrained part of it. Suitable examples of custom constructed cloud hosting platforms with in-house invented site hosting Control Panels are: hostonfire.uk, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud web hosting hardware equipment prices
The minimal investment needed, just for the cloud web space hosting hardware equipment, equals somewhere between 60,000 USD and 80,000 USD. That's omitting the DDoS mechanism, which is another 15-20,000 dollars. Now you are well aware of how many cloud web site hosting systems can be found out there... and, especially, why the web hosting sky is so azure... and almost cloudless!
