Cloud Web Hosting Explanation

Actually, the actual cloud hosting platform serves different hosting services like disk space, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting CP, backup, and so on, on autonomous packs of avant-garde servers. Each separate service group produces a cluster. All the web hosting servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving only the given service and nothing else. They will all function as one server, sharing the service's load in approximately equal proportions. If there is a real cloud hosting service, there has to be: a data storage cluster, a mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a website hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these separate service clusters will constitute the so-called cloud web hosting system.

The immense cloud web hosting trick. Very widespread now.

There is so much confusion revolving around about cloud web hosting nowadays. As you can see, cloud hosting does not only seem perplexing, but in fact it is intensely perplexing. The majority of the people are not at all aware of what cloud hosting is. On the basis of this widely spread ignorance, the "cloud website hosting suppliers" speculate fervently, just to get hold of the client and his/her 5 bucks a month. What a shame! An immense disgrace. This is because in the hosting industry niche there are no rules at all. The domain industry has ICANN. The web hosting industry has no such self-regulative organization. This is the reason why the hosting firms speculate and tell lies openly (quite directly, actually) to their customers. Chiefly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's check how much cloud web hosting they in fact can offer.

The truth about the cPanel-based "cloud" hosting wholesalers

If a cPanel-based website hosting company has a cloud website hosting solution at hand, which is very improbable, many servers have to be paid for. Which is also not inexpensive. We will get back to that towards the end of this story. But before we do, let's explore what the cloud complications are. So, it's quite improbable for a cPanel hosting vendor to have the cloud website hosting system at hand, owing to the fact that inventing one demands years. Even when time and the provision of a competent staff are not an issue, a lot of money has to be invested too. Heaps of money. On top of that, cPanel is not open source. That's a great drawback.

The absence of open source cloud hosting solutions

There are no open source cloud website hosting solutions. There are no open source website hosting Control Panel tools (running with the cloud website hosting solution) either. Hence, to have a cloud hosting solution at hand, first of all you must establish one. In-house. In the second place, you must invent the CP as well.

Single server-based web hosting CPs

Modern web hosting Control Panels like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are set up to perform on one single server solely. All website hosting services (disk space, electronic mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, web hosting CP, backup, and so on) are being served at the very same time on one server where these specific one-server web hosting platforms and web hosting Control Panels are installed.

The deficiency of open source web hosting Control Panels

So, you must devise an in-house built website hosting CP that will work perfectly and to incorporate it within the cloud system, as if it was a natural component of it. Proper examples of custom made cloud web hosting systems with custom built website hosting Control Panels besides us, at DEMKADA, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud hosting hardware provision expenses

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