Cloud Web Hosting Description

In general, the real cloud web hosting platform serves different hosting services such as web space, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, web hosting CP, backup, etc., on independent sets of high-end web servers. Each separate service group produces a cluster. All the hosting servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving only the particular service and nothing apart from it. They will all run as one web server, sharing the service's load in almost equivalent proportions. If there is a genuine cloud web hosting service, there should be: a web space cluster, a mail cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these autonomous service clusters will create the so-called cloud website hosting system.

The great cloud web hosting deceit. Very common now.

There is so much confusion going around about cloud hosting at the moment. As you can perceive, cloud web hosting does not only seem complicated, but actually it is greatly perplexing. The majority of the people know nothing about what cloud web hosting is. On the wings of this common unawareness, the "cloud web hosting providers" speculate intensely, just to get hold of the client and his/her five dollars a month. What a disgrace! A big shame. This is because in the hosting industry niche there are no enactments whatsoever. The domain industry niche has ICANN. The hosting industry niche has no such administrative body. That is the reason why the hosting merchandisers speculate and lie blatantly (quite directly, in fact) to their clients. Mainly the cPanel-based cloud hosting providers. Let's check how much cloud web hosting they in reality can deliver.

The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" web hosting corporations

If a cPanel-based website hosting corporation has a cloud web hosting solution at hand, which is very improbable, plenty of web hosting servers have to be ensured. Which is also not cheap. We will get back to that at the end of this story. But before we do, let's see what the cloud problems are. So, it's very unbelievable for a cPanel web hosting retailer to keep the cloud web hosting platform at hand, since devising one requires years. Even when time and the provision of an expert team are not an issue, a lot of money has to be invested as well. Mountains of money. What's more, cPanel is not open source. That's a great problem.

The deficiency of open source cloud web hosting systems

There are no open source cloud web hosting solutions. There aren't any open source website hosting Control Panel interfaces (operating with the cloud web hosting solution) as well. Therefore, to have a cloud web hosting system at hand, in the first place you must fabricate one. In-house. Secondly, you must make the web hosting Control Panel too.

One server-based website hosting Control Panels

Famous hosting Control Panels like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are set up to function on one server solely. All website hosting services (disk storage, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting CP, backup, and so on) are being served concurrently on one web server where these specific one-server website hosting systems and hosting Control Panels are installed.

The absence of open source website hosting Control Panels

So, you must fabricate an in-house built web hosting Control Panel that will function perfectly and to accommodate it within the cloud system, as if it was an indelible part of it. Proper instances of custom constructed cloud web hosting solutions with custom devised website hosting Control Panels besides us, at Elias Store, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud web hosting hardware equipment charges

The smallest contribution needed, only for the cloud web hosting hardware equipment, amounts to somewhere between sixty thousand dollars and 80,000 dollars. That's omitting the DDoS apparatus, which is another $15-20,000. Now you do know how many cloud web hosting solutions can be found out there... and, in particular, why the web hosting sky is so turquoise... and nearly cloudless!
