Cloud Hosting Unveiled
Essentially, the genuine cloud hosting platform serves individual web hosting services such as data storage, electronic mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting Control Panel, backup, etc., on separate stacks of top-notch servers. Each different service set makes a cluster. All the servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving solely the specific service and nothing else. They will all run as one single web server, sharing out the service's load in nearly equipollent proportions. If there is an authentic cloud hosting service, there must be: a data storage cluster, an electronic mail cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a web hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these separate service clusters will make the so-called cloud web hosting platform.
The enormous cloud website hosting fraud. Very modern at the moment.
There is so much confusion circulating around about cloud web hosting now. As you can see, cloud hosting does not only appear perplexing, but in reality it is excessively perplexing. The majority of the people are not at all aware of what cloud hosting is. On the wings of this popular ignorance, the "cloud web hosting distributors" speculate intensely, just to get hold of the client and his/her five bucks per month. What a disgrace! A vast disgrace. This is due to the fact that in the web hosting business niche there are no enactments whatsoever. The domain industry has ICANN. The web hosting industry niche has no such supervising organization. That is why the hosting traders speculate and tell lies overtly (quite directly, as a matter of fact) to their customers. Mainly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's learn how much cloud web hosting they in fact can distribute.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" web hosting distributors
If a cPanel-based website hosting company has a cloud hosting system at hand, which is quite improbable, multiple web hosting servers have to be purchased. Which is also not inexpensive. We will get back to that at the end of this story. First off, let's examine what the cloud problems are. So, it's very unbelievable for a cPanel web hosting corporation to have the cloud web hosting system at hand, due to the fact that fabricating one takes years. Even when time and the provision of a competent team are not a predicament, a lot of money must be invested too. Mountains of money. Moreover, cPanel is not open source. That's an enormous obstacle.
The lack of open source cloud hosting environments
There are no open source cloud website hosting platforms. There are no open source web hosting Control Panel devices (operating with the cloud website hosting system) as well. Hence, to have a cloud hosting system at hand, in the first place you must devise one. In-house. In the second place, you have to make the web hosting Control Panel as well.
Single server-based web hosting CPs
Contemporary web hosting Control Panels such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are constructed to work on one single web server exclusively. All hosting services (disk space, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, website hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on) are being served at the very same time on one web server where these respective one-server website hosting systems and web hosting Control Panels are set up.
The deficiency of open source web hosting Control Panels
So, you have to construct a custom web hosting Control Panel that will perform flawlessly and to include it within the cloud system, as if it was an inherent part of it. Good examples of custom built cloud web hosting platforms with in-house created Control Panels besides us, at Magnolia Sweets Web Hosting, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.
Cloud hosting hardware equipment fees
The smallest investment demanded, just for the cloud hosting hardware equipment, equals somewhere between $60,000 and 80,000 USD. That's omitting the DDoS mechanism, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you are well aware of how many cloud hosting systems can be stumbled upon out there... and, above all, why the web hosting sky is so blue... and practically cloudless!
