Cloud Hosting Explanation

Essentially, the genuine cloud web hosting solution serves separate web hosting services like disk storage, electronic mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting CP, backup, and so on, on individual packs of deluxe web servers. Each particular service pack generates 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 operate as one web server, sharing out the service's load in approximately equivalent proportions. If there is an authentic cloud web hosting service, there should be: a web space cluster, an electronic mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a web hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these independent service clusters will compose the so-called cloud website hosting system.

The colossal cloud hosting hoax. Very common now.

There is so much speculation going around about cloud hosting at the moment. As you can perceive, cloud web hosting does not only appear complicated, but in reality it is greatly complicated. The majority of the people are not at all aware of what cloud web hosting is. Based on this common unawareness, the "cloud hosting companies" speculate eagerly, just to get hold of the customer and his/her five dollars per month. What a disgrace! A huge disgrace. This is because in the web hosting industry there are no ordinances at all. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The website hosting industry has no such supervising organization. That is why the hosting retailers speculate and lie blatantly (quite bluntly, in fact) to their customers. Especially the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's examine how much cloud hosting they in reality can distribute.

The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" web hosting firms

If a cPanel-based web hosting supplier has a cloud website hosting platform at hand, which is very unlikely, loads of hosting servers have to be ensured. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that towards the end of this story. First, let's explore what the cloud complications are. So, it's quite improbable for a cPanel web hosting merchandiser to have the cloud hosting platform at hand, since devising one takes years. Even when time and the provision of an experienced team are not a problem, lots of money must be spent too. Piles of cash. Moreover, cPanel is not open source. That's a great drawback.

The shortage of open source cloud web hosting systems

There aren't any open source cloud web hosting systems. There aren't any open source web hosting Control Panel interfaces (working with the cloud website hosting system) either. Therefore, to have a cloud web hosting platform at hand, first you must devise one. In-house. Secondly, you must set up the web hosting CP too.

Single server-based website hosting CPs

Famous web hosting Control Panels like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are manufactured to operate on a single web server only. All hosting services (web space, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on) are being served at one and the same time on one web server where these given one-server website hosting platforms and web hosting CPs are set up.

The shortage of open source website hosting Control Panels

So, you have to devise an in-house built web hosting CP that will work faultlessly and to incorporate it within the cloud platform, as if it was an ingrained constituent of it. Good examples of custom developed cloud hosting systems with in-house devised website hosting Control Panels besides us, at Hosteela.com, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud web hosting hardware provision costs

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