Cloud Web Hosting Explanation

Actually, the genuine cloud web hosting solution serves different hosting services such as disk space, email, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting CP, backup, etc., on separate sets of avant-garde web servers. Each separate service pack forms a cluster. All the web hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving solely the specific service and nothing aside from it. They will all operate as one web server, sharing out the service's load in approximately identical proportions. If there is a genuine cloud web hosting service, there has to be: a disk space cluster, a mail cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a web hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these separate service clusters will beget the so-called cloud web hosting platform.

The huge cloud hosting deceit. Very widespread nowadays.

There is so much speculation revolving around about cloud web hosting today. As you can perceive, cloud web hosting does not only seem perplexing, but actually it is intensely complicated. Most of the people know nothing about what cloud web hosting is. On the basis of this common ignorance, the "cloud website hosting providers" speculate fiercely, just to get hold of the client and his/her 5 dollars a month. What a disgrace! An enormous disgrace. This is because in the web hosting industry niche there are no stipulations whatsoever. The domain name industry has ICANN. The web hosting industry has no such self-controlling body. This is why the web hosting suppliers speculate and lie blatantly (quite directly, as a matter of fact) to their clients. Notably the cPanel-based cloud hosting providers. Let's find out how much cloud hosting they in fact can offer.

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

If a cPanel-based web hosting provider has a cloud web hosting solution at hand, which is quite unlikely, plenty of hosting servers have to be purchased. Which is also not inexpensive. We will get back to that at the end of this review. First off, let's see what the cloud complications are. So, it's quite unlikely for a cPanel hosting retailer to keep the cloud website hosting platform at hand, in that constructing one demands years. Even when time and the provision of expert personnel are not a problem, a lot of cash has to be invested as well. Mountains of money. Furthermore, cPanel is not open source. That's a vast inconvenience.

The deficiency of open source cloud web hosting environments

There aren't any open source cloud website hosting environments. There are no open source website hosting CP GUIs (functioning with the cloud web hosting solution) as well. So, to have a cloud web hosting solution at hand, in the first place you must develop one. In-house. Secondly, you have to develop the web hosting CP too.

One server-based website hosting CPs

Modern web hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are meant to perform on one server solely. All website hosting services (storage space, email, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting CP, backup, etc.) are being served at the very same time on one single server where these given single-server website hosting systems and web hosting CPs are set up.

The lack of open source web hosting CPs

So, you have to set up a custom web hosting CP that will perform flawlessly and to incorporate it within the cloud system, as if it was an inbuilt component of it. Suitable examples of in-house built cloud web hosting solutions with custom invented web hosting CPs besides us, at SIANA HOSTING, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud web hosting hardware equipment costs

The smallest investment required, only for the cloud web hosting hardware provision, amounts to somewhere between 60 thousand dollars and 80,000 USD. That's excluding the DDoS appliance, which is another $15-20,000 USD. Now you are well aware of how many cloud web hosting platforms can be detected out there... and, above all, why the web hosting sky is so turquoise... and almost unclouded!
