The sheer truth about the cloud web page hosting service
In general, the genuine cloud web space hosting solution serves distinct hosting services like web space, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, web site hosting CP, backup, etc., on independent sets of deluxe web servers. Each different service pack constitutes a cluster. All the hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving solely the specific service and nothing else. They will all run as one single server, sharing the service's load in approximately equivalent proportions. If there is an authentic cloud web hosting service, there has to be: a web space cluster, an email cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a web page hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these independent service clusters will build the so-called cloud web space hosting system.
The gigantic cloud website hosting trick. Quite common today.
There is so much confusion circulating around about cloud web hosting now. As you can perceive,cloud hosting does not only seem complicated, but in reality it is greatly complicated. Most of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. Based on this universal ignorance, the "cloud web hosting vendors" speculate fiercely, just to secure the customer and his/her 5 bucks per month. What a disgrace! A vast shame. This is due to the fact that in the site hosting industry niche there are no decrees whatsoever. The domain name industry has ICANN. The web site hosting industry niche has no such supervising organization. That is the reason why the web page hosting companies speculate and lie overtly (very directly, in fact) to their clients. Especially the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's uncover how much cloud hosting they actually can provide.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" web hosting wholesalers
If a cPanel-based web hosting trader has a cloud website hosting system at hand, which is quite unbelievable, lots of hosting servers must be obtained. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that towards the end of this article. But before we do, let's explore what the cloud predicaments are. So, it's very unlikely for a cPanel hosting merchandiser to keep the cloud web site hosting system at hand, because making one requires years. Even when time and the provision of a highly qualified staff are not a problem, lots of money must be spent as well. Mountains of money. What's more, cPanel is not open source. That's a big downside.
The absence of open source cloud hosting systems
There aren't any open source cloud web hosting environments. There are no open source web site hosting Control Panel GUIs (operating with the cloud site hosting solution) either. Hence, to have a cloud hosting system at hand, first you have to create one. In-house. Secondly, you must devise the web site hosting Control Panel too.
One server-based web hosting Control Panels
Today's popular CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are made to function on one single web server only. All site hosting services (disk storage, email, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, site hosting Control Panel, backup, etc.) are being served at the same time on one server where these respective one-server web hosting platforms and site hosting Control Panels are installed.
The absence of open source hosting CPs
So, you have to construct an in-house built web hosting CP that will run impeccably and to integrate it within the cloud platform, as if it was an inbuilt part of it. Good instances of in-house manufactured cloud website hosting platforms with in-house developed web hosting Control Panels are: NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud site hosting hardware equipment costs
The minimum investment demanded, only for the cloud hosting hardware equipment, equals somewhere between 60,000 USD and 80,000 USD. That's excluding the DDoS device, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you realize how many cloud web page hosting platforms can be encountered out there... and, above all, why the hosting sky is so blue... and almost unclouded!
