Cloud Web Hosting Explanation

Actually, the genuine cloud web hosting platform serves individual website hosting services such as web space, email, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting CP, backup, and so on, on individual sets of cutting-edge web servers. Each separate service set generates a cluster. All the hosting servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving solely the particular service and nothing apart from it. They will all run as one single server, sharing out the service's load in practically equal proportions. If there is a real cloud web hosting service, there would be: a web space cluster, an email cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a web hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these autonomous service clusters will constitute the so-called cloud web hosting platform.

The great cloud website hosting deceit. Quite widespread today.

There is so much speculation going around about cloud hosting now. As you can perceive, cloud web hosting does not only appear perplexing, but in reality it is highly perplexing. Most of the people know nothing about what cloud web hosting is. On the basis of this popular ignorance, the "cloud website hosting merchandisers" speculate eagerly, just to secure the customer and his/her 5 bucks per month. What a shame! A vast disgrace. This is due to the fact that in the web hosting industry niche there are no enactments at all. The domain industry has ICANN. The website hosting industry has no such administrative organization. That is why the hosting wholesalers speculate and lie overtly (very directly, as a matter of fact) to their customers. Particularly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's check how much cloud hosting they in reality can distribute.

The truth about the cPanel-based "cloud" web hosting traders

If a cPanel-based web hosting merchant has a cloud website hosting solution at hand, which is quite unlikely, many web servers must be bought. Which is also not cheap. We will get back to that towards the end of this review. First off, let's examine what the cloud troubles are. So, it's very unbelievable for a cPanel hosting company to have the cloud web hosting platform at hand, owing to the fact that establishing one demands years. Even when time and the provision of an expert staff are not an issue, lots of cash has to be invested too. Heaps of money. Furthermore, cPanel is not open source. That's a vast disadvantage.

The shortage of open source cloud web hosting environments

There are no open source cloud web hosting solutions. There aren't any open source web hosting Control Panel user interfaces (running with the cloud web hosting solution) either. Hence, to have a cloud web hosting platform at hand, first you must create one. In-house. Second of all, you must create the website hosting Control Panel as well.

One server-based web hosting Control Panels

Modern hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are manufactured to operate on one single server solely. All website hosting services (disk storage, email, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting CP, backup, and so on) are being served simultaneously on a single web server where these given single-server website hosting systems and website hosting Control Panels are installed.

The absence of open source CPs

So, you must fabricate a custom web hosting Control Panel that will operate faultlessly and to accommodate it within the cloud system, as if it was an indelible part of it. Proper examples of custom created cloud web hosting systems with custom built web hosting CPs besides us, at hostinbase, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud web hosting hardware provision expenses

The smallest contribution wanted, only for the cloud web hosting hardware provision, equals somewhere between 60,000 dollars and $80,000 USD. That's omitting the DDoS appliance, which is another 15-20,000 dollars. Now you realize how many cloud web hosting platforms can be chanced on out there... and, especially, why the hosting sky is so turquoise... and almost cloudless!
