Curious facts about the cloud hosting service
Essentially, the real cloud hosting solution serves separate hosting services like web space, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, site hosting Control Panel, backup, etc., on individual packs of top-quality web servers. Each single service set creates a cluster. All the web hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving solely the given service and nothing apart from it. They will all work as one web server, sharing out the service's load in practically the same proportions. If there is a genuine cloud web hosting service, there must be: a storage space cluster, an email cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a web space hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these separate service clusters will constitute the so-called cloud website hosting system.
The enormous cloud web hosting hoax. Quite common nowadays.
There is so much speculation revolving around about cloud web hosting these days. As you can perceive,cloud hosting does not only appear complicated, but in fact it is supremely complicated. The majority of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. On the wings of this common ignorance, the "cloud web hosting wholesalers" speculate intensely, just to secure the client and his/her 5 dollars per month. What a shame! A huge disgrace. This is because in the web page hosting industry niche there are no norms at all. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The web space hosting industry has no such administrative organization. This is why the web hosting vendors speculate and tell lies openly (quite directly, as a matter of fact) to their customers. Mainly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's uncover how much cloud hosting they in fact can supply.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" web site hosting vendors
If a cPanel-based web site hosting retailer has a cloud web site hosting system at hand, which is quite unlikely, plenty of web servers have to be acquired. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that at the end of this story. But before we do, let's find out what the cloud complications are. So, it's quite improbable for a cPanel hosting merchandiser to have the cloud hosting system at hand, in that developing one takes years. Even when time and the provision of a highly qualified staff are not an issue, plenty of cash must be invested too. Heaps of money. Plus, cPanel is not open source. That's an enormous disadvantage.
The deficiency of open source cloud webspace hosting systems
There aren't any open source cloud webspace hosting platforms. There aren't any open source hosting Control Panel tools (functioning with the cloud web hosting platform) either. Hence, to have a cloud web space hosting platform at hand, in the first place you have to create one. In-house. Secondly, you have to invent the hosting CP too.
Single server-based site hosting Control Panels
Today's popular hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are built to operate on one single web server exclusively. All web page hosting services (disk space, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, hosting Control Panel, backup, etc.) are being served concurrently on one server where these specific single-server site hosting platforms and site hosting CPs are installed.
The lack of open source hosting Control Panels
So, you have to invent an in-house built site hosting CP that will function faultlessly and to integrate it within the cloud system, as if it was an inbuilt component of it. Proper examples of custom built cloud hosting solutions with custom created web site hosting CPs are: G Designz, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud website hosting hardware equipment prices
The smallest investment needed, only for the cloud site hosting hardware provision, equals somewhere between 60,000 dollars and $80,000 USD. That's excluding the DDoS mechanism, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you are well aware of how many cloud website hosting solutions can be stumbled upon out there... and, especially, why the hosting sky is so azure... and practically cloudless!
