The whole truth about the cloud hosting service
Actually, the real cloud webspace hosting platform serves individual hosting services like web space, electronic mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, CP, backup, and so on, on separate sets of high-end servers. Each specific service set produces a cluster. All the web servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving solely the given service and nothing apart from it. They will all perform as one single web server, sharing the service's load in approximately equal proportions. If there is an authentic cloud web hosting service, there should be: a disk storage cluster, a mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a webspace hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these separate service clusters will make the so-called cloud web site hosting system.
The mammoth cloud web site hosting hoax. Very widespread at the moment.
There is so much speculation going around about cloud web hosting at the moment. As you can perceive,cloud hosting does not only sound complicated, but in reality it is extremely perplexing. Most of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. Based on this widely spread unawareness, the "cloud website hosting providers" speculate fiercely, just to secure the customer and his/her 5 bucks a month. What a disgrace! A vast disgrace. This is due to the fact that in the site hosting industry there are no rules whatsoever. The domain name industry has ICANN. The site hosting industry has no such supervising organization. This is the reason why the site hosting merchandisers speculate and tell lies blatantly (quite bluntly, actually) to their customers. Mainly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's check how much cloud hosting they actually can furnish.
The truth about the cPanel-based "cloud" web site hosting firms
If a cPanel-based web space hosting wholesaler has a cloud webspace hosting system at hand, which is very improbable, a lot of servers have to be ensured. Which is also not inexpensive. We will get back to that towards the end of this review. First off, let's find out what the cloud troubles are. So, it's quite unbelievable for a cPanel hosting merchant to have the cloud web space hosting system at hand, as devising one takes years. Even when time and the provision of competent personnel are not a problem, lots of cash must be spent too. Stacks of money. Moreover, cPanel is not open source. That's a big drawback.
The shortage of open source cloud web space hosting solutions
There are no open source cloud site hosting platforms. There aren't any open source CP tools (operating with the cloud web space hosting system) either. So, to have a cloud website hosting system at hand, first you must build one. In-house. Second of all, you have to invent the CP too.
Single server-based webspace hosting CPs
Famous site hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are built to perform on one single web server only. All webspace hosting services (disk storage, email, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, web space hosting Control Panel, backup, etc.) are being served at the very same time on one single web server where these particular single-server hosting systems and web site hosting CPs are set up.
The shortage of open source hosting Control Panels
So, you have to invent an in-house built web space hosting Control Panel that will run perfectly and to include it within the cloud platform, as if it was a natural constituent of it. Appropriate examples of custom devised cloud web hosting platforms with custom set up web page hosting CPs are: TheSiteForme.com, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud web page hosting hardware provision fees
The minimal investment demanded, only for the cloud web page hosting hardware equipment, is equivalent to somewhere between sixty thousand dollars and $80,000 USD. That's omitting the DDoS device, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you are well aware of how many cloud web site hosting platforms can be encountered out there... and, in particular, why the web hosting sky is so azure... and practically cloudless!
