What In Fact is Cloud Web Hosting?

In general, the actual cloud hosting solution serves various web hosting services such as storage space, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on, on different packs of deluxe web servers. Each single service pack makes a cluster. All the web servers in a cluster are devoted to serving only the given service and nothing apart from it. They will all function as one server, sharing out the service's load in approximately equivalent proportions. If there is a real cloud hosting service, there would be: a storage space cluster, an email cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a website hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these different service clusters will render the so-called cloud website hosting platform.

The gigantic cloud web hosting hoax. Very modern today.

There is so much misunderstanding revolving around about cloud web hosting at present. As you can see, cloud hosting does not only appear complicated, but actually it is intensely complicated. Most of the people are not at all aware of what cloud hosting is. On the basis of this universal ignorance, the "cloud web hosting retailers" speculate strongly, just to get hold of the customer and his/her 5 bucks a month. What a disgrace! A great disgrace. This is because in the hosting industry niche there are no enactments at all. The domain industry has ICANN. The web hosting industry niche has no such supervising body. This is why the web hosting retailers speculate and lie openly (very directly, as a matter of fact) to their customers. Mainly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's determine how much cloud web hosting they in reality can offer.

The truth about the cPanel-based "cloud" website hosting merchandisers

If a cPanel-based website hosting merchant has a cloud web hosting platform at hand, which is quite improbable, plenty of web hosting servers must be paid for. Which is also not inexpensive. We will get back to that towards the end of this review. But before we do, let's see what the cloud predicaments are. So, it's very improbable for a cPanel hosting company to keep the cloud website hosting platform at hand, owing to the fact that inventing one takes years. Even when time and the provision of expert personnel are not a predicament, plenty of money has to be invested too. Mountains of cash. Moreover, cPanel is not open source. That's an enormous defect.

The shortage of open source cloud hosting systems

There aren't any open source cloud web hosting systems. There are no open source web hosting Control Panel interfaces (functioning with the cloud website hosting platform) either. Therefore, to have a cloud hosting solution at hand, first you must make one. In-house. Second of all, you have to devise the website hosting Control Panel too.

One server-based website hosting CPs

Modern website hosting Control Panels such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are made to run on one single web server exclusively. All website hosting services (storage space, electronic mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, web hosting CP, backup, etc.) are being served at the very same time on a single server where these respective one-server web hosting platforms and CPs are installed.

The absence of open source web hosting CPs

So, you must build a custom website hosting Control Panel that will work impeccably and to include it within the cloud platform, as if it was an indelible part of it. Appropriate instances of custom invented cloud website hosting solutions with custom manufactured website hosting CPs besides us, at World Hosting, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud hosting hardware provision expenses

The smallest investment wanted, just for the cloud hosting hardware provision, amounts to somewhere between 60,000 USD and $80,000. That's omitting the DDoS device, which is another $15-20,000. Now you are well aware of how many cloud hosting systems can be stumbled upon out there... and, above all, why the hosting sky is so blue... and virtually unclouded!
