The facts about the cloud web site hosting solution

Actually, the real cloud webspace hosting solution serves various hosting services such as disk space, email, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, web space hosting CP, backup, and so on, on different bunches of avant-garde servers. Each separate service pack generates a cluster. All the servers in a cluster are devoted to serving exclusively the particular service and nothing apart from it. They will all work as one server, sharing out the service's load in nearly the same proportions. If there is a real cloud web hosting service, there would be: a web space cluster, an electronic mail cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a webspace hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these autonomous service clusters will compose the so-called cloud webspace hosting platform.

The great cloud hosting swindle. Very common nowadays.

There is so much misunderstanding circulating around about cloud web hosting at present. As you can perceive,cloud hosting does not only appear perplexing, but in fact it is highly perplexing. The majority of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. On the basis of this widely spread unawareness, the "cloud web hosting merchandisers" speculate eagerly, just to secure the customer and his/her five bucks a month. What a shame! An enormous shame. This is because in the site hosting industry niche there are no bylaws whatsoever. The domain industry has ICANN. The hosting industry has no such legislative body. That is why the webspace hosting suppliers speculate and tell lies blatantly (very directly, as a matter of fact) to their clients. Especially the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's learn how much cloud hosting they in reality can distribute.

The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" web page hosting suppliers

If a cPanel-based web hosting retailer has a cloud webspace hosting platform at hand, which is quite unlikely, lots of web hosting servers have to be acquired. Which is also not cheap. We will get back to that at the end of this story. First, let's see what the cloud predicaments are. So, it's very unbelievable for a cPanel hosting retailer to have the cloud hosting system at hand, since making one demands years. Even when time and the provision of a competent staff are not a problem, lots of money must be spent as well. Heaps of money. Moreover, cPanel is not open source. That's an immense defect.

The lack of open source cloud web page hosting platforms

There aren't any open source cloud web hosting solutions. There are no open source website hosting Control Panel interfaces (functioning with the cloud hosting platform) either. So, to have a cloud webspace hosting platform at hand, first you must invent one. In-house. Second of all, you have to devise the web hosting Control Panel too.

One server-based webspace hosting CPs

Famous Control Panels like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are manufactured to work on one web server only. All web space hosting services (web space, email, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on) are being served at one and the same time on one web server where these specific one-server site hosting platforms and web page hosting CPs are set up.

The absence of open source web hosting Control Panels

So, you must develop a custom Control Panel that will work uncomplicatedly and to accommodate it within the cloud platform, as if it was an ingrained constituent of it. Proper examples of custom made cloud web hosting platforms with in-house devised web hosting CPs are: NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel

Cloud web space hosting hardware provision expenses

The minimum investment needed, just for the cloud site hosting hardware provision, is equivalent to somewhere between $60,000 USD and $80,000. 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 platforms can be chanced on out there... and, especially, why the hosting sky is so azure... and practically cloudless!
