Cloud Web Hosting Description

Actually, the real cloud web hosting platform serves separate hosting services like disk space, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting Control Panel, backup, etc., on autonomous stacks of avant-garde web servers. Each different service pack makes a cluster. All the servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving only the particular service and nothing else. They will all perform as one server, sharing out the service's load in approximately equipollent proportions. If there is a real 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 stats cluster, a web hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these individual service clusters will render the so-called cloud website hosting platform.

The gigantic cloud web hosting scam. Quite widespread these days.

There is so much speculation circulating around about cloud hosting today. As you can perceive, cloud web hosting does not only seem perplexing, but actually it is greatly complicated. The majority of the people are not at all aware of what cloud web hosting is. On the basis of this universal unawareness, the "cloud website hosting corporations" speculate intensely, just to get hold of the customer and his/her 5 dollars a month. What a shame! A huge disgrace. This is owing to the fact that in the website hosting industry niche there are no bylaws whatsoever. The domain industry has ICANN. The website hosting industry has no such self-controlling institution. This is the reason why the hosting traders speculate and lie overtly (very directly, as a matter of fact) to their clients. Particularly the cPanel-based cloud hosting providers. Let's examine how much cloud hosting they in fact can deliver.

The truth about the cPanel-based "cloud" web hosting companies

If a cPanel-based website hosting corporation has a cloud website hosting solution at hand, which is quite improbable, plenty of web hosting servers have to be ensured. Which is also not inexpensive. We will return to that towards the end of this story. First off, let's see what the cloud complications are. So, it's very unlikely for a cPanel hosting distributor to keep the cloud website hosting platform at hand, as setting up one demands years. Even when time and the provision of a highly qualified staff are not a predicament, plenty of cash has to be invested too. Stacks of cash. Moreover, cPanel is not open source. That's an immense disadvantage.

The deficiency of open source cloud web hosting platforms

There are no open source cloud web hosting solutions. There are no open source Control Panel devices (working with the cloud website hosting solution) as well. Therefore, to have a cloud web hosting system at hand, in the first place you have to establish one. In-house. In the second place, you must make the website hosting Control Panel too.

One server-based web hosting CPs

Today's popular hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are constructed to run on a single web server only. All web hosting services (storage space, email, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting Control Panel, backup, etc.) are being served at the same time on a single server where these specific single-server web hosting systems and web hosting CPs are set up.

The lack of open source CPs

So, you must create a custom web hosting CP that will work perfectly and to incorporate it within the cloud platform, as if it was an inbuilt constituent of it. Good instances of custom developed cloud web hosting platforms with custom set up hosting Control Panels besides us, at EzyWeb Hosting Solutions, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud web hosting hardware provision fees

The smallest investment needed, only for the cloud web hosting hardware provision, amounts to somewhere between 60 thousand dollars and eighty thousand dollars. That's omitting the DDoS apparatus, which is another $15-20,000 USD. Now you realize how many cloud web hosting platforms can be encountered out there... and, above all, why the hosting sky is so blue... and virtually cloudless!
