Curious facts about the cloud web page hosting service
In general, the actual cloud web page hosting platform serves separate hosting services like storage space, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web page hosting Control Panel, backup, etc., on separate groups of high-end servers. Each particular service set creates a cluster. All the web servers in a cluster are devoted to serving exclusively the given service and nothing else. They will all operate as one web server, sharing the service's load in nearly identical proportions. If there is a genuine cloud web hosting service, there should be: a disk space cluster, an electronic mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a website hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these autonomous service clusters will make the so-called cloud website hosting platform.
The big cloud hosting fraud. Very popular nowadays.
There is so much confusion circulating around about cloud web hosting these days. As you can perceive,cloud hosting does not only appear perplexing, but in fact it is greatly complicated. Most of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. On the wings of this popular ignorance, the "cloud web space hosting firms" speculate fervently, just to secure the customer and his/her 5 bucks a month. What a disgrace! A huge disgrace. This is owing to the fact that in the site hosting industry niche there are no decrees whatsoever. The domain name industry has ICANN. The webspace hosting industry has no such supervisory body. This is why the web page hosting traders speculate and lie overtly (quite bluntly, actually) to their clients. Notably the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's determine how much cloud hosting they indeed can provide.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" hosting wholesalers
If a cPanel-based web space hosting distributor has a cloud website hosting solution at hand, which is very improbable, numerous web hosting servers have to be paid for. Which is also not inexpensive. We will return to that towards the end of this article. But before we do, let's see what the cloud problems are. So, it's quite unlikely for a cPanel hosting distributor to keep the cloud webspace hosting system at hand, because creating one demands years. Even when time and the provision of competent personnel are not a predicament, lots of money must be invested too. Heaps of cash. Furthermore, cPanel is not open source. That's a huge problem.
The deficiency of open source cloud site hosting solutions
There aren't any open source cloud website hosting solutions. There are no open source hosting CP devices (functioning with the cloud webspace hosting platform) as well. So, to have a cloud website hosting platform at hand, first of all you must devise one. In-house. In the second place, you have to create the web site hosting Control Panel as well.
One server-based web hosting Control Panels
Popular site hosting CPs like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are created to perform on one server solely. All web page hosting services (web space, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web site hosting CP, backup, and so on) are being served at the very same time on one single server where these particular single-server web site hosting systems and site hosting Control Panels are set up.
The absence of open source web hosting CPs
So, you have to establish an in-house built webspace hosting CP that will work impeccably and to add it within the cloud platform, as if it was an inherent component of it. Appropriate examples of in-house devised cloud web hosting platforms with custom built Control Panels are: NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud web page hosting hardware provision fares
The smallest contribution demanded, just for the cloud web hosting hardware equipment, amounts to somewhere between 60 thousand dollars and 80,000 USD. That's excluding the DDoS tool, which is another $15-20,000 USD. Now you do know how many cloud site hosting platforms can be discovered out there... and, in particular, why the hosting sky is so blue... and practically unclouded!
