Cloud Website Hosting Description
In general, the real cloud website hosting solution serves separate web hosting services such as disk space, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, hosting CP, backup, etc., on individual groups of cutting-edge web servers. Each single service group makes a cluster. All the web hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving only the given service and nothing else. They will all work as one single web server, sharing out the service's load in practically equivalent proportions. If there is an authentic cloud website hosting service, there has to be: a disk space cluster, an electronic mail cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these autonomous service clusters will form the so-called cloud website hosting system.
The huge cloud web hosting scam. Very modern at the moment.
There is so much speculation circulating around about cloud web hosting today. As you can perceive, cloud website hosting does not only appear perplexing, but in reality it is intensely complicated. The majority of the people are not at all aware of what cloud website hosting is. Based on this widespread ignorance, the "cloud web hosting firms" speculate eagerly, just to secure the client and his/her five dollars per month. What a disgrace! A big shame. This is because in the web hosting industry there are no regulations whatsoever. The domain industry niche has ICANN. The web hosting industry has no such self-regulative institution. That is why the hosting firms speculate and lie overtly (quite directly, in fact) to their customers. Particularly the cPanel-based cloud hosting providers. Let's uncover how much cloud web hosting they indeed can distribute.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" website hosting traders
If a cPanel-based hosting vendor has a cloud web hosting system at hand, which is very improbable, multiple web servers have to be bought. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that at the end of this review. First, let's find out what the cloud troubles are. So, it's quite unbelievable for a cPanel hosting company to have the cloud web hosting platform at hand, in that devising one demands years. Even when time and the provision of a highly qualified staff are not a predicament, a lot of money must be invested too. Tons of money. On top of that, cPanel is not open source. That's a big problem.
The absence of open source cloud website hosting systems
There are no open source cloud web hosting systems. There aren't any open source hosting CP interfaces (operating with the cloud web hosting system) either. So, to have a cloud website hosting system at hand, in the first place you have to build one. In-house. Secondly, you have to establish the website hosting CP too.
One server-based web hosting Control Panels
Contemporary web hosting CPs like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are meant to work on one single server exclusively. All website hosting services (storage space, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, Control Panel, backup, etc.) are being served simultaneously on a single server where these respective one-server web hosting systems and Control Panels are installed.
The absence of open source web hosting Control Panels
So, you must develop a custom hosting Control Panel that will run unproblematically and to add it within the cloud system, as if it was an inbuilt part of it. Good examples of in-house created cloud website hosting platforms with in-house manufactured web hosting CPs besides us, at Comnet Cloud Solutions, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.
Cloud website hosting hardware provision charges
The minimum investment required, just for the cloud website hosting hardware provision, amounts to somewhere between $60,000 USD and 80 thousand dollars. That's omitting the DDoS mechanism, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you are well aware of how many cloud website hosting solutions can be stumbled upon out there... and, especially, why the web hosting sky is so azure... and virtually cloudless!
