The complete truth about the cloud hosting service
Actually, the actual cloud webspace hosting solution serves different hosting services such as data storage, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web site hosting Control Panel, backup, etc., on different bunches of leading edge servers. Each different service group makes a cluster. All the web servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving exclusively the particular service and nothing else. They will all operate as one single web server, sharing the service's load in approximately the same proportions. If there is a real cloud web hosting service, there should be: a web space cluster, an email cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a web site hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these independent service clusters will make the so-called cloud hosting system.
The substantial cloud webspace hosting scam. Very common now.
There is so much confusion circulating around about cloud web hosting nowadays. As you can perceive,cloud hosting does not only sound complicated, but in fact it is excessively complicated. Most of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. On the basis of this common ignorance, the "cloud webspace hosting merchandisers" speculate feverishly, just to secure the client and his/her 5 bucks a month. What a shame! An enormous disgrace. This is because in the website hosting business there are no laws at all. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The site hosting industry niche has no such self-controlling institution. That is the reason why the web space hosting traders speculate and tell lies overtly (very directly, in fact) to their customers. Especially the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's uncover how much cloud hosting they indeed can distribute.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" web space hosting wholesalers
If a cPanel-based hosting supplier has a cloud hosting platform at hand, which is quite unlikely, plenty of hosting servers have to be purchased. Which is also not cheap. We will get back to that towards the end of this story. First off, let's examine what the cloud troubles are. So, it's very improbable for a cPanel hosting supplier to keep the cloud webspace hosting platform at hand, due to the fact that setting up one takes years. Even when time and the provision of an experienced team are not an issue, a lot of money has to be spent as well. Stacks of money. Plus, cPanel is not open source. That's a vast disadvantage.
The deficiency of open source cloud webspace hosting solutions
There aren't any open source cloud webspace hosting environments. There aren't any open source web site hosting CP instruments (running with the cloud site hosting platform) either. So, to have a cloud web site hosting platform at hand, first you have to make one. In-house. In the second place, you have to set up the web page hosting Control Panel as well.
One server-based hosting CPs
Today's popular site hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are manufactured to operate on one single web server only. All web space hosting services (web space, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, site hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on) are being served concurrently on one server where these respective one-server web site hosting systems and web page hosting CPs are set up.
The shortage of open source website hosting CPs
So, you must create a custom web site hosting CP that will function unproblematically and to incorporate it within the cloud system, as if it was an ingrained part of it. Proper examples of in-house manufactured cloud hosting solutions with custom made website hosting Control Panels are: Sindibad Host, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud web hosting hardware provision expenses
The minimum contribution wanted, only for the cloud web site hosting hardware equipment, is equivalent to somewhere between 60 thousand dollars and 80,000 USD. That's excluding the DDoS tool, which is another 15-20,000 dollars. Now you realize how many cloud webspace hosting platforms can be encountered out there... and, above all, why the hosting sky is so azure... and nearly cloudless!
