Cloud Website Hosting Explanation

Actually, the authentic cloud website hosting platform serves separate website hosting services like data storage, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting CP, backup, and so on, on autonomous bunches of cutting-edge web servers. Each individual service set constitutes a cluster. All the servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving exclusively the given service and nothing beside it. They will all perform as one server, sharing out the service's load in nearly equipollent proportions. If there is a genuine cloud website hosting service, there would be: a web space 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 individual service clusters will produce the so-called cloud website hosting system.

The colossal cloud web hosting deceit. Very popular at the moment.

There is so much confusion going around about cloud hosting at present. As you can perceive, cloud website hosting does not only appear complicated, but actually it is intensely perplexing. The majority of the people know nothing about what cloud website hosting is. On the basis of this common unawareness, the "cloud website hosting vendors" speculate feverishly, just to secure the customer and his/her 5 bucks a month. What a shame! A huge shame. This is because in the hosting business niche there are no ordinances at all. The domain name industry has ICANN. The hosting industry has no such supervising body. That is why the hosting companies speculate and lie blatantly (very directly, in fact) to their clients. Especially the cPanel-based cloud hosting providers. Let's learn how much cloud hosting they in reality can provide.

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

If a cPanel-based website hosting retailer has a cloud web hosting solution at hand, which is very unlikely, lots of servers have to be purchased. Which is also not inexpensive. We will get back to that at the end of this article. But before we do, let's see what the cloud predicaments are. So, it's quite improbable for a cPanel web hosting company to keep the cloud website hosting system at hand, for constructing one requires years. Even when time and the provision of proficient personnel are not an issue, plenty of money has to be spent too. Heaps of money. What's more, cPanel is not open source. That's a great disadvantage.

The absence of open source cloud website hosting environments

There are no open source cloud hosting systems. There are no open source web hosting CP interfaces (running with the cloud web hosting platform) either. Hence, to have a cloud website hosting system at hand, first of all you have to create one. In-house. Second of all, you have to fabricate the web hosting CP too.

One server-based Control Panels

Famous web hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are invented to work on one single web server exclusively. All hosting services (disk storage, email, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on) are being served at the very same time on one single web server where these respective single-server hosting systems and website hosting CPs are installed.

The absence of open source hosting Control Panels

So, you have to establish an in-house built web hosting CP that will run faultlessly and to integrate it within the cloud system, as if it was an indelible constituent of it. Proper instances of in-house built cloud website hosting solutions with custom built website hosting CPs besides us, at handhonline.co.uk, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud website hosting hardware provision expenses

The minimal contribution wanted, just for the cloud website hosting hardware provision, is equivalent to somewhere between 60,000 USD and 80,000 USD. That's excluding the DDoS tool, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you are well aware of how many cloud website hosting platforms can be encountered out there... and, above all, why the web hosting sky is so turquoise... and virtually cloudless!
