Cloud Website Hosting Description

In general, the real cloud website hosting solution serves individual hosting services like storage space, email, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, website hosting CP, backup, etc., on individual hosts of very advanced web servers. Each different service set constitutes a cluster. All the web servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving only the given service and nothing aside from it. They will all function as one server, sharing out the service's load in nearly the same proportions. If there is a real cloud website hosting service, there must be: a disk storage cluster, a mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a web hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these separate service clusters will compose the so-called cloud website hosting platform.

The colossal cloud web hosting trick. Very popular today.

There is so much misunderstanding going around about cloud web hosting now. As you can perceive, cloud website hosting does not only appear perplexing, but in fact it is intensely complicated. The majority of the people are not at all aware of what cloud website hosting is. On the basis of this popular unawareness, the "cloud web hosting traders" speculate fiercely, just to get hold of the customer and his/her five dollars per month. What a shame! A big shame. This is owing to the fact that in the web hosting industry niche there are no enactments whatsoever. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The website hosting industry has no such self-regulative institution. That is why the website hosting companies speculate and lie openly (quite directly, as a matter of fact) to their customers. Especially the cPanel-based cloud hosting providers. Let's check how much cloud web hosting they actually can furnish.

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

If a cPanel-based website hosting retailer has a cloud website hosting solution at hand, which is quite unlikely, multiple web servers must be purchased. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that at the end of this review. But before we do, let's examine what the cloud complications are. So, it's very unbelievable for a cPanel hosting merchandiser to have the cloud web hosting system at hand, because building one takes years. Even when time and the provision of an experienced team are not a problem, plenty of money must be invested too. Piles of money. Plus, cPanel is not open source. That's an immense downside.

The shortage of open source cloud website hosting environments

There aren't any open source cloud website hosting systems. There are no open source hosting CP devices (working with the cloud website hosting platform) either. Hence, to have a cloud website hosting solution at hand, first you have to establish one. In-house. Secondly, you have to create the web hosting CP as well.

Single server-based website hosting Control Panels

Popular website hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are invented to work on one single server only. All website hosting services (disk space, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting CP, backup, and so on) are being served at the same time on one single server where these given single-server website hosting systems and website hosting Control Panels are installed.

The lack of open source website hosting CPs

So, you must establish a custom CP that will perform uncomplicatedly and to accommodate it within the cloud system, as if it was an inherent part of it. Appropriate examples of in-house manufactured cloud website hosting platforms with custom invented web hosting CPs besides us, at HostingSuperCenter.com, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud website hosting hardware equipment fees

The smallest investment required, only for the cloud website hosting hardware provision, amounts to somewhere between 60 thousand dollars and 80 thousand dollars. That's omitting the DDoS appliance, which is another $15-20,000 USD. Now you are well aware of how many cloud website hosting solutions can be chanced on out there... and, especially, why the web hosting sky is so azure... and practically cloudless!
