The truth about the cloud web hosting solution

Essentially, the genuine cloud web page hosting platform serves distinct hosting services like disk storage, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, hosting Control Panel, backup, etc., on independent bunches of very powerful web servers. Each specific service group forms a cluster. All the web hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving only the given service and nothing apart from it. They will all operate as one server, sharing out the service's load in almost identical proportions. If there is a real cloud web hosting service, there has to be: a disk storage cluster, a mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these independent service clusters will form the so-called cloud web site hosting platform.

The enormous cloud webspace hosting swindle. Quite popular at the moment.

There is so much confusion revolving around about cloud web hosting at the moment. As you can perceive,cloud hosting does not only sound complicated, but in reality it is excessively perplexing. Most of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. On the wings of this widespread ignorance, the "cloud web hosting merchandisers" speculate fervently, 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 website hosting business niche there are no bylaws at all. The domain name industry has ICANN. The web site hosting industry niche has no such legislative institution. That is the reason why the web space hosting corporations speculate and tell lies openly (quite directly, as a matter of fact) to their clients. Chiefly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's see how much cloud hosting they in fact can deliver.

The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" web page hosting wholesalers

If a cPanel-based website hosting merchant has a cloud web page hosting solution at hand, which is very unlikely, lots of servers have to be obtained. Which is also not cheap. We will get back to that towards the end of this article. First, let's see what the cloud complications are. So, it's very unlikely for a cPanel hosting vendor to have the cloud webspace hosting system at hand, because of the fact that fabricating one requires years. Even when time and the provision of a competent staff are not an issue, loads of cash must be spent too. Piles of cash. What's more, cPanel is not open source. That's an enormous defect.

The absence of open source cloud site hosting platforms

There are no open source cloud hosting systems. There are no open source web page hosting CP user interfaces (functioning with the cloud web hosting system) as well. Hence, to have a cloud webspace hosting system at hand, first you have to devise one. In-house. Secondly, you must set up the web page hosting CP too.

Single server-based web page hosting Control Panels

Popular web page hosting CPs like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are created to run on one web server only. All web hosting services (storage space, email, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, Control Panel, backup, etc.) are being served at the very same time on a single server where these particular one-server website hosting platforms and webspace hosting CPs are installed.

The lack of open source site hosting Control Panels

So, you have to create a custom Control Panel that will function unproblematically and to accommodate 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 in-house invented web hosting Control Panels are: NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel

Cloud site hosting hardware provision fees

The minimum contribution required, just for the cloud web site hosting hardware provision, equals somewhere between 60,000 dollars and $80,000 USD. That's excluding the DDoS appliance, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you do know how many cloud web site hosting platforms can be chanced on out there... and, especially, why the hosting sky is so blue... and virtually cloudless!
