Cloud Web Hosting Explanation

In general, the authentic cloud web hosting platform serves various hosting services like disk space, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting Control Panel, backup, etc., on different groups of top-quality servers. Each specific service set generates a cluster. All the servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving exclusively the particular service and nothing apart from it. They will all perform as one web server, sharing out the service's load in nearly equivalent proportions. If there is an authentic cloud web hosting service, there should be: a disk storage cluster, an electronic mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a CP cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these separate service clusters will make the so-called cloud web hosting system.

The substantial cloud website hosting fraud. Quite widespread these days.

There is so much confusion revolving around about cloud web hosting today. As you can see, cloud web hosting does not only seem complicated, but actually it is greatly complicated. Most of the people are not at all aware of what cloud web hosting is. On the wings of this common unawareness, the "cloud web hosting suppliers" speculate fiercely, just to get hold of the client and his/her 5 dollars per month. What a disgrace! A great shame. This is because in the web hosting industry niche there are no statutes at all. The domain industry niche has ICANN. The website hosting industry niche has no such regulatory organization. That is the reason why the website hosting vendors speculate and lie openly (quite directly, as a matter of fact) to their customers. Especially the cPanel-based cloud hosting providers. Let's see how much cloud hosting they in reality can supply.

The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" website hosting suppliers

If a cPanel-based web hosting firm has a cloud web hosting solution at hand, which is quite unlikely, many hosting servers have to be ensured. Which is also not inexpensive. We will return to that towards the end of this review. First, let's explore what the cloud predicaments are. So, it's quite unlikely for a cPanel hosting company to keep the cloud website hosting system at hand, for making one takes years. Even when time and the provision of professional personnel are not a problem, lots of cash must be spent as well. Stacks of cash. In addition, cPanel is not open source. That's a big drawback.

The lack of open source cloud web hosting platforms

There aren't any open source cloud web hosting solutions. There aren't any open source web hosting CP user interfaces (working with the cloud web hosting platform) as well. So, to have a cloud web hosting system at hand, first of all you must develop one. In-house. In the second place, you have to build the Control Panel too.

Single server-based hosting CPs

Modern web hosting Control Panels like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are created to work on one web server solely. All web hosting services (storage space, electronic mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, web hosting Control Panel, backup, etc.) are being served at the very same time on one server where these respective one-server website hosting systems and website hosting CPs are set up.

The shortage of open source website hosting Control Panels

So, you must set up an in-house built hosting Control Panel that will operate unproblematically and to incorporate it within the cloud platform, as if it was an inbuilt constituent of it. Good instances of in-house devised cloud website hosting systems with custom manufactured website hosting CPs besides us, at Saints Hosting, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud web hosting hardware equipment fares

The smallest contribution wanted, just for the cloud web hosting hardware equipment, amounts to somewhere between $60,000 USD and 80 thousand dollars. That's excluding the DDoS appliance, which is another 15-20,000 dollars. Now you realize how many cloud web hosting platforms can be chanced on out there... and, above all, why the web hosting sky is so blue... and virtually cloudless!
