Curious facts about the cloud hosting service

In general, the authentic cloud web hosting platform serves individual hosting services such as disk space, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web space hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on, on independent hosts of top-quality web servers. Each individual service set produces a cluster. All the web hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving only the particular service and nothing aside from it. They will all perform as one single web server, sharing out the service's load in almost the same proportions. If there is an authentic cloud web hosting service, there must be: a web space cluster, a mail cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these separate service clusters will build the so-called cloud site hosting platform.

The colossal cloud web site hosting hoax. Very common at the moment.

There is so much misunderstanding circulating around about cloud web hosting these days. As you can see,cloud hosting does not only appear complicated, but in reality it is highly complicated. Most of the people are not at all aware of what cloud hosting is. On the wings of this popular ignorance, the "cloud web space hosting merchants" speculate feverishly, just to get hold of the client and his/her 5 dollars a month. What a disgrace! A big shame. This is due to the fact that in the web page hosting industry there are no statutes whatsoever. The domain industry niche has ICANN. The web site hosting industry has no such self-controlling institution. This is the reason why the web space hosting traders speculate and lie openly (quite bluntly, as a matter of fact) to their clients. Notably the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's determine how much cloud hosting they actually can offer.

The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" site hosting corporations

If a cPanel-based hosting distributor has a cloud web site hosting system at hand, which is very unbelievable, multiple web servers must be obtained. Which is also not cheap. We will get back to that at the end of this story. First off, let's examine what the cloud predicaments are. So, it's quite unlikely for a cPanel hosting distributor to have the cloud site hosting platform at hand, because of the fact that setting up one demands years. Even when time and the provision of an expert team are not an issue, a lot of cash must be spent as well. Piles of cash. Furthermore, cPanel is not open source. That's a huge drawback.

The absence of open source cloud web site hosting environments

There aren't any open source cloud web hosting environments. There aren't any open source web page hosting CP GUIs (running with the cloud web site hosting platform) either. So, to have a cloud web space hosting platform at hand, in the first place you must build one. In-house. In the second place, you have to establish the website hosting CP as well.

Single server-based webspace hosting Control Panels

Today's popular Control Panels such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are set up to run on one web server only. All website hosting services (data storage, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, web site hosting Control Panel, backup, etc.) are being served at the same time on one single server where these particular single-server website hosting platforms and web space hosting CPs are installed.

The shortage of open source site hosting CPs

So, you must invent an in-house built web space hosting CP that will run faultlessly and to include it within the cloud system, as if it was an ingrained constituent of it. Appropriate examples of custom created cloud hosting solutions with in-house built hosting CPs are: Intrigue Hosting, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel

Cloud hosting hardware provision expenses

The smallest contribution wanted, just for the cloud web hosting hardware provision, is equivalent to somewhere between 60,000 USD and 80,000 dollars. That's omitting the DDoS appliance, which is another $15-20,000 USD. Now you do know how many cloud hosting platforms can be discovered out there... and, especially, why the hosting sky is so azure... and nearly cloudless!
