The sheer truth about the cloud hosting service

Actually, the actual cloud web space hosting solution serves distinct hosting services such as storage space, electronic mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting CP, backup, and so on, on independent groups of deluxe web servers. Each particular service group constitutes a cluster. All the hosting servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving exclusively the given service and nothing beside it. They will all work as one web server, sharing the service's load in nearly equal proportions. If there is a genuine cloud web hosting service, there would be: a data storage cluster, an email cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a site hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these independent service clusters will beget the so-called cloud web site hosting platform.

The gigantic cloud hosting fraud. Quite popular now.

There is so much misunderstanding going around about cloud web hosting these days. As you can perceive,cloud hosting does not only sound perplexing, but in reality it is very perplexing. The majority of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. On the basis of this widely spread ignorance, the "cloud webspace hosting retailers" speculate strongly, just to get hold of the customer and his/her 5 bucks per month. What a disgrace! An enormous shame. This is due to the fact that in the webspace hosting business niche there are no bylaws at all. The domain industry has ICANN. The webspace hosting industry has no such regulative body. This is why the site hosting suppliers speculate and tell lies openly (quite bluntly, actually) to their customers. Particularly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's ascertain how much cloud hosting they actually can deliver.

The truth about the cPanel-based "cloud" web site hosting vendors

If a cPanel-based site hosting distributor has a cloud web site hosting solution at hand, which is very unlikely, a lot of hosting servers must be acquired. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that at the end of this story. First, let's explore what the cloud troubles are. So, it's very unbelievable for a cPanel hosting merchant to have the cloud site hosting platform at hand, because of the fact that constructing one requires years. Even when time and the provision of a competent team are not a problem, lots of money must be spent too. Piles of money. What's more, cPanel is not open source. That's a huge downside.

The shortage of open source cloud web page hosting systems

There aren't any open source cloud web page hosting systems. There aren't any open source site hosting CP tools (working with the cloud web site hosting solution) as well. So, to have a cloud web site hosting solution at hand, first you have to create one. In-house. Secondly, you have to fabricate the CP too.

Single server-based webspace hosting CPs

Modern hosting Control Panels like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are intended to work on one web server exclusively. All website hosting services (disk storage, email, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting CP, backup, etc.) are being served at the same time on one server where these specific one-server web space hosting platforms and web hosting CPs are installed.

The shortage of open source hosting CPs

So, you have to devise a custom site hosting CP that will perform uncomplicatedly and to incorporate it within the cloud platform, as if it was a natural constituent of it. Suitable examples of custom constructed cloud website hosting systems with custom set up web site hosting CPs are: WebHost-ing.com, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel

Cloud hosting hardware equipment expenses

The minimum investment required, just for the cloud webspace hosting hardware equipment, amounts to somewhere between sixty thousand dollars and 80,000 USD. That's omitting the DDoS apparatus, which is another fifteen-twenty thousand dollars. Now you do know how many cloud web hosting platforms can be found out there... and, above all, why the hosting sky is so azure... and practically unclouded!
