The pure thruth about the cloud web space hosting service
In general, the actual cloud web site hosting platform serves separate hosting services like storage space, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, site hosting CP, backup, etc., on separate stacks of high-end servers. Each separate service group generates a cluster. All the servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving solely the specific service and nothing apart from it. They will all perform as one single web server, sharing out the service's load in approximately identical proportions. If there is a genuine cloud web hosting service, there would be: a data storage cluster, an email cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a web space hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these independent service clusters will constitute the so-called cloud hosting system.
The big cloud site hosting hoax. Very common today.
There is so much speculation going around about cloud web hosting these days. As you can see,cloud hosting does not only sound perplexing, but in reality it is supremely perplexing. The majority of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. On the basis of this popular ignorance, the "cloud web space hosting companies" speculate intensely, just to secure the client and his/her 5 dollars per month. What a disgrace! An enormous shame. This is because in the site hosting business niche there are no statutes at all. The domain industry has ICANN. The hosting industry has no such supervising institution. That is why the web hosting providers speculate and tell lies overtly (very bluntly, actually) to their customers. Particularly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's examine how much cloud hosting they indeed can distribute.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" website hosting wholesalers
If a cPanel-based webspace hosting provider has a cloud website hosting solution at hand, which is very improbable, a lot of web hosting servers have to be purchased. Which is also not inexpensive. We will get back to that at the end of this article. But before we do, let's explore what the cloud troubles are. So, it's very unbelievable for a cPanel hosting merchandiser to have the cloud site hosting platform at hand, since setting up one requires years. Even when time and the provision of a competent staff are not an issue, lots of money must be spent too. Tons of cash. Moreover, cPanel is not open source. That's an enormous inconvenience.
The shortage of open source cloud web space hosting systems
There are no open source cloud webspace hosting platforms. There are no open source web site hosting Control Panel GUIs (functioning with the cloud web space hosting solution) as well. Therefore, to have a cloud hosting system at hand, first of all you have to fabricate one. In-house. Secondly, you must invent the webspace hosting CP too.
Single server-based web hosting CPs
Famous web hosting CPs like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are developed to perform on one single server solely. All site hosting services (disk space, email, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, site hosting Control Panel, backup, etc.) are being served simultaneously on one single web server where these specific one-server web site hosting platforms and web space hosting Control Panels are installed.
The deficiency of open source web space hosting Control Panels
So, you have to devise an in-house built website hosting CP that will operate perfectly and to add it within the cloud system, as if it was an inherent component of it. Good examples of in-house devised cloud hosting platforms with in-house constructed web space hosting CPs are: AND-GATE, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud web site hosting hardware provision rates
The minimum investment demanded, only for the cloud hosting hardware provision, amounts to somewhere between $60,000 USD and 80,000 dollars. That's excluding the DDoS mechanism, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you are well aware of how many cloud web page hosting platforms can be found out there... and, above all, why the hosting sky is so turquoise... and virtually cloudless!
