Curious facts about the cloud website hosting solution

In general, the genuine cloud website hosting solution serves separate hosting services like data storage, email, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, website hosting Control Panel, backup, etc., on individual hosts of high-end web servers. Each single service pack forms a cluster. All the hosting servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving only the given service and nothing aside from it. They will all perform as one server, sharing the service's load in almost equal proportions. If there is an authentic cloud web hosting service, there would be: a web space cluster, a mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these separate service clusters will construct the so-called cloud webspace hosting system.

The mammoth cloud web page hosting fraud. Very common these days.

There is so much speculation going around about cloud web hosting now. As you can see,cloud hosting does not only appear perplexing, but in reality it is supremely perplexing. Most of the people are not at all aware of what cloud hosting is. On the wings of this popular unawareness, the "cloud website hosting merchandisers" speculate strongly, just to secure the customer and his/her five dollars per month. What a shame! A big disgrace. This is because in the webspace hosting industry niche there are no rules at all. The domain industry has ICANN. The web hosting industry has no such administrative institution. That is the reason why the hosting corporations speculate and tell lies blatantly (very bluntly, actually) to their clients. Mainly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's ascertain how much cloud hosting they actually can distribute.

The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" hosting companies

If a cPanel-based webspace hosting wholesaler has a cloud hosting platform at hand, which is quite improbable, lots of web hosting servers have to be purchased. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that towards the end of this story. First off, let's see what the cloud problems are. So, it's very unbelievable for a cPanel hosting merchandiser to have the cloud web space hosting system at hand, as setting up one requires years. Even when time and the provision of experienced personnel are not a predicament, a lot of money must be spent too. Heaps of cash. On top of that, cPanel is not open source. That's an enormous drawback.

The shortage of open source cloud site hosting environments

There are no open source cloud website hosting systems. There aren't any open source Control Panel tools (working with the cloud hosting system) either. Therefore, to have a cloud web site hosting system at hand, first of all you have to set up one. In-house. Secondly, you must make the webspace hosting Control Panel as well.

One server-based CPs

Popular Control Panels such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are constructed to perform on one single web server only. All webspace hosting services (disk space, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, webspace hosting CP, backup, and so on) are being served simultaneously on a single server where these particular one-server web page hosting platforms and website hosting Control Panels are installed.

The lack of open source web space hosting Control Panels

So, you have to develop a custom website hosting CP that will perform unproblematically and to integrate it within the cloud system, as if it was an indelible part of it. Proper examples of in-house made cloud hosting platforms with custom made Control Panels are: iTechnologix Hosting, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel

Cloud website hosting hardware equipment fees

The minimum investment needed, only for the cloud web space hosting hardware equipment, equals somewhere between $60,000 and 80 thousand dollars. That's omitting the DDoS apparatus, which is another $15-20,000 USD. Now you do know how many cloud hosting systems can be encountered out there... and, above all, why the web hosting sky is so azure... and almost unclouded!
