The precise truth about the cloud webspace hosting service
Essentially, the actual cloud web hosting platform serves separate hosting services like web space, email, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, webspace hosting CP, backup, and so on, on separate hosts of cutting-edge servers. Each individual service set generates a cluster. All the web 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 approximately identical proportions. If there is a real cloud web hosting service, there must be: a data storage cluster, a mail cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a CP cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these independent service clusters will render the so-called cloud web site hosting platform.
The enormous cloud site hosting hoax. Very popular these days.
There is so much confusion revolving around about cloud web hosting now. As you can see,cloud hosting does not only seem perplexing, but in reality it is intensely complicated. Most of the people are not at all aware of what cloud hosting is. Based on this widely spread unawareness, the "cloud webspace hosting corporations" speculate fiercely, just to get hold of the customer and his/her 5 bucks per month. What a disgrace! A vast disgrace. This is because in the web hosting industry niche there are no principles at all. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The web page hosting industry niche has no such supervising institution. That is why the web hosting companies speculate and tell lies openly (quite bluntly, actually) to their customers. Mainly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's examine how much cloud hosting they actually can distribute.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" website hosting distributors
If a cPanel-based web page hosting corporation has a cloud website hosting system at hand, which is quite improbable, a lot of web hosting servers have to be purchased. Which is also not inexpensive. We will return to that towards the end of this review. But before we do, let's see what the cloud troubles are. So, it's very improbable for a cPanel hosting merchant to have the cloud web page hosting platform at hand, owing to the fact that setting up one requires years. Even when time and the provision of a competent team are not a problem, loads of cash must be invested as well. Tons of cash. What's more, cPanel is not open source. That's an immense problem.
The absence of open source cloud web space hosting systems
There aren't any open source cloud web hosting solutions. There are no open source site hosting CP user interfaces (functioning with the cloud web site hosting system) as well. So, to have a cloud website hosting system at hand, first you have to devise one. In-house. In the second place, you have to construct the Control Panel too.
Single server-based hosting Control Panels
Today's popular webspace hosting Control Panels like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are meant to perform on one server only. All web page hosting services (web space, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, web site hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on) are being served at the very same time on one single web server where these particular single-server site hosting platforms and hosting Control Panels are installed.
The deficiency of open source website hosting Control Panels
So, you must develop an in-house built hosting CP that will work flawlessly and to accommodate it within the cloud platform, as if it was an inbuilt part of it. Good instances of custom developed cloud web hosting platforms with custom manufactured site hosting Control Panels are: Bandhost.com.au, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud webspace hosting hardware equipment costs
The minimal investment required, just for the cloud webspace hosting hardware equipment, is equivalent to somewhere between 60 thousand dollars and $80,000. That's excluding the DDoS device, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you are well aware of how many cloud web site hosting solutions can be stumbled upon out there... and, especially, why the hosting sky is so turquoise... and almost cloudless!
