Cloud Website Hosting Explanation

Essentially, the genuine cloud web hosting solution serves distinct web hosting services like storage space, electronic mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, CP, backup, and so on, on separate bunches of avant-garde servers. Each separate service pack makes a cluster. All the hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving exclusively the given service and nothing else. They will all operate as one server, sharing out the service's load in practically the same proportions. If there is a genuine cloud web hosting service, there must be: a disk storage cluster, an electronic 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, and so on. All these autonomous service clusters will compose the so-called cloud web hosting platform.

The substantial cloud website hosting trick. Very common now.

There is so much confusion going around about cloud web hosting now. As you can perceive, cloud web hosting does not only appear complicated, but in reality it is highly perplexing. The majority of the people are not at all aware of what cloud web hosting is. Based on this widespread unawareness, the "cloud website hosting distributors" speculate intensely, just to get hold of the customer and his/her 5 bucks a month. What a shame! A vast shame. This is owing to the fact that in the web hosting business there are no stipulations at all. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The web hosting industry has no such regulatory organization. This is why the hosting suppliers speculate and tell lies blatantly (very directly, actually) to their customers. Particularly the cPanel-based cloud hosting providers. Let's find out how much cloud hosting they in fact can distribute.

The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" website hosting suppliers

If a cPanel-based web hosting firm has a cloud web hosting system at hand, which is quite unlikely, plenty of web servers have to be purchased. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that at the end of this review. But before we do, let's see what the cloud problems are. So, it's very unbelievable for a cPanel hosting vendor to keep the cloud hosting system at hand, as inventing one requires years. Even when time and the provision of expert personnel are not an issue, a lot of money must be spent too. Piles of cash. On top of that, cPanel is not open source. That's a great problem.

The shortage of open source cloud web hosting environments

There are no open source cloud website hosting environments. There aren't any open source web hosting Control Panel tools (running with the cloud web hosting solution) as well. Therefore, to have a cloud web hosting system at hand, in the first place you must devise one. In-house. In the second place, you have to set up the CP as well.

Single server-based web hosting Control Panels

Contemporary website hosting CPs like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are built to perform on one web server exclusively. All hosting services (web space, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, web hosting CP, backup, and so on) are being served at one and the same time on one server where these respective one-server hosting systems and website hosting CPs are set up.

The absence of open source hosting Control Panels

So, you must build a custom hosting Control Panel that will operate unproblematically and to integrate it within the cloud platform, as if it was an inbuilt constituent of it. Proper examples of custom made cloud website hosting solutions with custom created web hosting Control Panels besides us, at Fluint Web Host, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud web hosting hardware provision costs

The smallest investment required, only for the cloud web hosting hardware equipment, equals somewhere between sixty thousand dollars and 80,000 dollars. That's excluding the DDoS apparatus, which is another fifteen-twenty thousand dollars. Now you realize how many cloud web hosting solutions can be chanced on out there... and, especially, why the web hosting sky is so blue... and virtually cloudless!
