The absolute truth about the cloud web hosting service
In general, the real cloud hosting platform serves distinct hosting services such as data storage, email, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, site hosting CP, backup, and so on, on autonomous bunches of deluxe servers. Each different service group generates a cluster. All the 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 the service's load in practically equipollent proportions. If there is an authentic cloud web hosting service, there would be: a web space cluster, a mail cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a site hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these independent service clusters will create the so-called cloud site hosting platform.
The enormous cloud web hosting fraud. Quite modern these days.
There is so much misunderstanding going around about cloud web hosting now. As you can perceive,cloud hosting does not only seem complicated, but actually it is supremely complicated. The majority of the people are not at all aware of what cloud hosting is. On the wings of this universal unawareness, the "cloud web space hosting suppliers" speculate intensely, just to get hold of the client and his/her 5 dollars a month. What a disgrace! A huge shame. This is due to the fact that in the web site hosting industry niche there are no rules at all. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The webspace hosting industry has no such self-controlling body. This is the reason why the site hosting suppliers speculate and tell lies openly (quite bluntly, in fact) to their clients. Particularly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's check how much cloud hosting they in fact can deliver.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" site hosting traders
If a cPanel-based web site hosting merchant has a cloud web page hosting platform at hand, which is very unbelievable, loads of web hosting servers have to be paid for. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that at the end of this story. First off, let's examine what the cloud troubles are. So, it's very unbelievable for a cPanel hosting merchant to keep the cloud web page hosting system at hand, since devising one demands years. Even when time and the provision of professional personnel are not a problem, plenty of cash has to be spent too. Piles of money. What's more, cPanel is not open source. That's a vast inconvenience.
The shortage of open source cloud hosting solutions
There aren't any open source cloud webspace hosting environments. There aren't any open source CP tools (working with the cloud web space hosting platform) as well. Hence, to have a cloud web page hosting system at hand, first you must set up one. In-house. Secondly, you have to invent the website hosting Control Panel too.
One server-based web hosting Control Panels
Popular hosting Control Panels like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are set up to work on one single web server exclusively. All web page hosting services (data storage, email, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, web hosting CP, backup, etc.) are being served at one and the same time on one server where these given single-server webspace hosting systems and hosting Control Panels are set up.
The deficiency of open source web site hosting Control Panels
So, you have to set up a custom webspace hosting CP that will operate faultlessly and to add it within the cloud platform, as if it was an ingrained component of it. Appropriate examples of custom invented cloud hosting solutions with custom devised web site hosting CPs are: PC Mechanix Hosting, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud web site hosting hardware equipment fares
The minimal investment wanted, only for the cloud web page hosting hardware equipment, amounts to somewhere between 60,000 USD and $80,000 USD. That's omitting the DDoS device, which is another fifteen-twenty thousand dollars. Now you do know how many cloud web space hosting solutions can be encountered out there... and, above all, why the hosting sky is so azure... and almost cloudless!
