What In Fact is Cloud Website Hosting?

Actually, the actual cloud hosting solution serves individual hosting services such as data storage, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting Control Panel, backup, etc., on separate groups of high-end web servers. Each single service group constitutes a cluster. All the hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving only the given service and nothing beside it. They will all work as one web server, sharing the service's load in approximately identical proportions. If there is an authentic cloud hosting service, there should be: a disk space cluster, a mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these individual service clusters will beget the so-called cloud web hosting system.

The colossal cloud website hosting trick. Very common now.

There is so much misunderstanding revolving around about cloud web hosting now. As you can see, cloud hosting does not only seem perplexing, but actually it is intensely perplexing. Most of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. On the wings of this common unawareness, the "cloud website hosting wholesalers" speculate fiercely, just to secure the customer and his/her five bucks per month. What a shame! An immense 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 web hosting industry has no such supervising organization. This is the reason why the web hosting providers speculate and lie openly (quite bluntly, actually) to their clients. Chiefly the cPanel-based cloud hosting providers. Let's uncover how much cloud web hosting they actually can distribute.

The truth about the cPanel-based "cloud" website hosting companies

If a cPanel-based web hosting distributor has a cloud website hosting solution at hand, which is very improbable, plenty of hosting servers have to be obtained. Which is also not inexpensive. We will return to that at the end of this review. First off, let's examine what the cloud complications are. So, it's quite unlikely for a cPanel web hosting merchant to have the cloud website hosting system at hand, because inventing one requires years. Even when time and the provision of expert personnel are not a problem, lots of cash has to be invested too. Piles of cash. In addition, cPanel is not open source. That's an immense defect.

The deficiency of open source cloud hosting solutions

There aren't any open source cloud web hosting platforms. There are no open source website hosting Control Panel interfaces (running with the cloud web hosting system) as well. So, to have a cloud hosting platform at hand, first of all you have to make one. In-house. Second of all, you have to develop the website hosting CP as well.

Single server-based web hosting CPs

Popular CPs like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are meant to operate on one single server only. All hosting services (disk storage, email, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on) are being served at the same time on a single web server where these respective one-server website hosting systems and web hosting CPs are set up.

The absence of open source hosting CPs

So, you have to build an in-house built web hosting Control Panel that will perform perfectly and to include it within the cloud platform, as if it was an indelible constituent of it. Suitable instances of custom manufactured cloud web hosting solutions with in-house set up website hosting CPs besides us, at Magnolia Sweets Web Hosting, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud hosting hardware provision fares

The minimal investment wanted, just for the cloud hosting hardware equipment, equals somewhere between $60,000 USD and eighty thousand dollars. That's excluding the DDoS tool, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you realize how many cloud hosting systems can be found out there... and, in particular, why the web hosting sky is so turquoise... and practically unclouded!
