Cloud Hosting Description

In general, the genuine cloud web hosting solution serves distinct hosting services such as data storage, email, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on, on different groups of high-end web servers. Each single service pack creates a cluster. All the hosting servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving solely the specific service and nothing aside from it. They will all run as one single server, sharing the service's load in practically equal proportions. If there is an authentic cloud web hosting service, there would be: a disk space cluster, an email cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a website hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these different service clusters will constitute the so-called cloud hosting platform.

The substantial cloud web hosting hoax. Quite popular at the moment.

There is so much misunderstanding revolving around about cloud hosting nowadays. As you can see, cloud web hosting does not only seem complicated, but in reality it is intensely complicated. The majority of the people know nothing about what cloud web hosting is. Based on this common ignorance, the "cloud website hosting traders" speculate intensely, just to get hold of the customer and his/her 5 bucks per month. What a shame! A huge disgrace. This is owing to the fact that in the web hosting business there are no tenets whatsoever. The domain name industry has ICANN. The web hosting industry has no such regulatory body. That is why the website hosting firms speculate and tell lies overtly (very bluntly, in fact) to their clients. Chiefly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's discover how much cloud hosting they indeed can provide.

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

If a cPanel-based website hosting corporation has a cloud web hosting system at hand, which is very improbable, many hosting servers have to be acquired. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that at the end of this article. But before we do, let's examine what the cloud complications are. So, it's quite improbable for a cPanel web hosting provider to have the cloud web hosting platform at hand, in that constructing one takes years. Even when time and the provision of professional personnel are not a predicament, lots of cash must be invested as well. Heaps of money. Moreover, cPanel is not open source. That's an immense inconvenience.

The deficiency of open source cloud web hosting systems

There are no open source cloud website hosting environments. There aren't any open source Control Panel user interfaces (operating with the cloud website hosting system) either. Therefore, to have a cloud web hosting platform at hand, first you must set up one. In-house. Secondly, you must construct the CP as well.

One server-based website hosting CPs

Famous website hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are meant to function on a single server solely. All web hosting services (web space, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, website hosting CP, backup, and so on) are being served concurrently on one single web server where these given one-server website hosting systems and web hosting CPs are installed.

The absence of open source web hosting CPs

So, you must devise an in-house built hosting CP that will work impeccably and to include it within the cloud platform, as if it was an indelible component of it. Suitable instances of in-house constructed cloud hosting platforms with custom built web hosting CPs besides us, at Visualis Web Hosting, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud web hosting hardware equipment rates

The smallest contribution demanded, just for the cloud web hosting hardware equipment, is equivalent to somewhere between 60,000 dollars and 80 thousand dollars. That's omitting the DDoS mechanism, which is another 15-20,000 USD. Now you are well aware of how many cloud web hosting solutions can be encountered out there... and, especially, why the hosting sky is so turquoise... and nearly cloudless!
