The sheer truth about the cloud web hosting service
Actually, the real cloud hosting solution serves distinct hosting services such as disk storage, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, site hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on, on independent stacks of high-end servers. Each separate service set generates a cluster. All the hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving solely the specific service and nothing else. They will all perform as one web server, sharing the service's load in practically identical proportions. If there is a real cloud web hosting service, there has to be: a disk space cluster, an electronic mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a web site hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these separate service clusters will render the so-called cloud web space hosting platform.
The substantial cloud web space hosting fraud. Very common nowadays.
There is so much confusion circulating around about cloud web hosting these days. As you can perceive,cloud hosting does not only seem complicated, but in fact it is very perplexing. The majority of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. On the basis of this popular unawareness, the "cloud web space hosting merchants" speculate strongly, just to secure the client and his/her five dollars a month. What a disgrace! A huge shame. This is because in the web space hosting business there are no laws at all. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The web site hosting industry niche has no such administrative institution. This is why the hosting distributors speculate and lie openly (quite bluntly, actually) to their customers. Chiefly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's learn how much cloud hosting they in reality can offer.
The truth about the cPanel-based "cloud" site hosting retailers
If a cPanel-based webspace hosting trader has a cloud web space hosting platform at hand, which is very unlikely, many servers must be secured. Which is also not cheap. We will get back to that towards the end of this story. First, let's examine what the cloud problems are. So, it's quite unbelievable for a cPanel hosting wholesaler to have the cloud web page hosting platform at hand, owing to the fact that inventing one takes years. Even when time and the provision of highly qualified personnel are not an issue, a lot of cash has to be invested as well. Piles of cash. On top of that, cPanel is not open source. That's a big problem.
The shortage of open source cloud web page hosting solutions
There aren't any open source cloud hosting environments. There are no open source website hosting Control Panel GUIs (operating with the cloud site hosting system) either. Therefore, to have a cloud web space hosting platform at hand, first of all you have to develop one. In-house. In the second place, you have to construct the site hosting Control Panel too.
One server-based hosting CPs
Today's popular web page hosting Control Panels like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are intended to function on one server solely. All site hosting services (disk storage, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, webspace hosting CP, backup, etc.) are being served at the very same time on one single web server where these respective one-server site hosting systems and website hosting CPs are installed.
The absence of open source website hosting Control Panels
So, you must construct an in-house built hosting CP that will perform perfectly and to integrate it within the cloud platform, as if it was a natural part of it. Good examples of in-house made cloud web hosting systems with custom built hosting Control Panels are: I'mHosting, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud web page hosting hardware provision charges
The minimal contribution needed, just for the cloud webspace hosting hardware equipment, amounts to somewhere between sixty thousand dollars and $80,000 USD. That's omitting the DDoS device, which is another $15-20,000. Now you realize how many cloud website hosting systems can be chanced on out there... and, in particular, why the hosting sky is so azure... and almost cloudless!
