The whole truth about the cloud webspace hosting solution
In general, the actual cloud site hosting platform serves various hosting services such as data storage, email, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, webspace hosting CP, backup, etc., on autonomous hosts of leading edge web servers. Each separate service set makes a cluster. All the web servers in a cluster are devoted to serving exclusively the particular service and nothing beside it. They will all run as one single server, sharing the service's load in approximately equivalent proportions. If there is a genuine cloud web hosting service, there would be: a disk storage cluster, an electronic mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a webspace hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these autonomous service clusters will compose the so-called cloud hosting platform.
The mammoth cloud hosting fraud. Very widespread these days.
There is so much misunderstanding going around about cloud web hosting now. As you can see,cloud hosting does not only seem complicated, but in reality it is greatly perplexing. Most of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. Based on this universal ignorance, the "cloud web space hosting suppliers" speculate eagerly, just to get hold of the client and his/her five bucks a month. What a disgrace! A vast shame. This is owing to the fact that in the site hosting business niche there are no principles whatsoever. The domain industry niche has ICANN. The hosting industry has no such supervisory organization. This is the reason why the webspace hosting suppliers speculate and tell lies openly (quite bluntly, in fact) to their customers. Especially the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's check how much cloud hosting they in fact can offer.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" web hosting distributors
If a cPanel-based web site hosting provider has a cloud hosting solution at hand, which is quite unlikely, plenty of hosting servers must be acquired. Which is also not cheap. We will get back to that towards the end of this article. First, let's see what the cloud complications are. So, it's quite unbelievable for a cPanel hosting corporation to keep the cloud web hosting system at hand, because setting up one takes years. Even when time and the provision of an expert team are not a problem, plenty of money must be invested too. Tons of cash. What's more, cPanel is not open source. That's a vast disadvantage.
The deficiency of open source cloud web site hosting solutions
There aren't any open source cloud web hosting systems. There aren't any open source website hosting CP devices (operating with the cloud website hosting system) either. So, to have a cloud web site hosting system at hand, first of all you must develop one. In-house. In the second place, you have to invent the site hosting Control Panel too.
Single server-based CPs
Today's popular webspace hosting CPs like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are devised to function on one single web server solely. All webspace hosting services (web space, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, hosting CP, backup, etc.) are being served concurrently on one server where these particular one-server web site hosting systems and web page hosting CPs are set up.
The lack of open source Control Panels
So, you have to construct an in-house built web site hosting CP that will function impeccably and to accommodate it within the cloud system, as if it was an inherent component of it. Good examples of in-house built cloud web hosting solutions with in-house made web space hosting Control Panels are: iClick and Host - Reliable webhosting at lowest prices, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud web space hosting hardware equipment costs
The minimal investment demanded, only for the cloud hosting hardware equipment, equals somewhere between $60,000 and 80,000 USD. That's excluding the DDoS tool, which is another 15-20,000 USD. Now you do know how many cloud web space hosting systems can be encountered out there... and, in particular, why the hosting sky is so turquoise... and almost cloudless!
