The facts about the cloud hosting service
In general, the authentic cloud web hosting solution serves separate hosting services like web space, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, hosting Control Panel, backup, etc., on independent hosts of top-notch web servers. Each individual service group produces a cluster. All the web servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving exclusively the particular service and nothing apart from it. They will all work as one single web server, sharing out the service's load in practically equipollent proportions. If there is a real cloud web hosting service, there must be: a web space cluster, an electronic mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a webspace hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these different service clusters will form the so-called cloud website hosting system.
The gigantic cloud web site hosting fraud. Very popular nowadays.
There is so much speculation going around about cloud web hosting at present. As you can see,cloud hosting does not only appear complicated, but actually it is supremely perplexing. The majority of the people are not at all aware of what cloud hosting is. On the basis of this widely spread ignorance, the "cloud website hosting companies" speculate eagerly, just to get hold of the customer and his/her 5 dollars a month. What a shame! An immense disgrace. This is due to the fact that in the web hosting business there are no decrees whatsoever. The domain industry has ICANN. The webspace hosting industry has no such self-regulative institution. That is why the hosting companies speculate and tell lies openly (quite bluntly, actually) to their customers. Especially the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's see how much cloud hosting they indeed can deliver.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" web site hosting merchants
If a cPanel-based hosting provider has a cloud web hosting system at hand, which is quite improbable, numerous servers have to be bought. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that at the end of this story. But before we do, let's explore what the cloud complications are. So, it's very improbable for a cPanel hosting provider to have the cloud website hosting platform at hand, because constructing one requires years. Even when time and the provision of competent personnel are not a problem, a lot of money must be invested as well. Heaps of cash. What's more, cPanel is not open source. That's a big inconvenience.
The lack of open source cloud web page hosting solutions
There are no open source cloud website hosting environments. There are no open source web hosting CP GUIs (functioning with the cloud web page hosting system) as well. So, to have a cloud web space hosting solution at hand, first you must invent one. In-house. In the second place, you must create the web site hosting Control Panel as well.
One server-based website hosting CPs
Popular website hosting Control Panels like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are meant to perform on one single server solely. All web space hosting services (web space, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, website hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on) are being served simultaneously on one server where these particular single-server site hosting platforms and site hosting CPs are installed.
The shortage of open source webspace hosting Control Panels
So, you must fabricate an in-house built web hosting CP that will run unproblematically and to accommodate it within the cloud system, as if it was an inbuilt part of it. Good examples of in-house developed cloud web hosting platforms with in-house manufactured site hosting CPs are: Incite Graphics, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud web site hosting hardware provision fees
The minimal investment wanted, only for the cloud web hosting hardware provision, equals somewhere between $60,000 USD and 80,000 USD. That's omitting the DDoS device, which is another $15-20,000 USD. Now you are well aware of how many cloud hosting systems can be detected out there... and, above all, why the hosting sky is so azure... and virtually unclouded!
