What Does Cloud Website Hosting Represent?

Actually, the real cloud web hosting platform serves various web hosting services like web space, email, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, CP, backup, and so on, on independent bunches of leading edge servers. Each single service pack forms a cluster. All the hosting servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving exclusively the specific service and nothing else. They will all run as one web server, sharing the service's load in practically identical proportions. If there is an authentic cloud web hosting service, there has to be: a storage space cluster, an electronic mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a website hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these individual service clusters will build the so-called cloud website hosting platform.

The big cloud website hosting scam. Quite common these days.

There is so much confusion circulating around about cloud hosting at the moment. As you can see, cloud web hosting does not only sound perplexing, but in reality it is highly perplexing. The majority of the people know nothing about what cloud web hosting is. Based on this universal ignorance, the "cloud web hosting wholesalers" speculate strongly, just to get hold of the client and his/her 5 bucks per month. What a shame! A huge disgrace. This is due to the fact that in the web hosting business niche there are no bylaws at all. The domain industry niche has ICANN. The website hosting industry has no such self-regulative body. This is why the hosting distributors speculate and lie openly (very directly, actually) to their clients. Chiefly the cPanel-based cloud hosting providers. Let's determine how much cloud hosting they in fact can furnish.

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

If a cPanel-based web hosting merchandiser has a cloud web hosting platform at hand, which is very improbable, plenty of web hosting servers have to be acquired. Which is also not inexpensive. We will get back to that towards the end of this review. First, let's see what the cloud complications are. So, it's quite unbelievable for a cPanel web hosting corporation to have the cloud web hosting platform at hand, in that building one requires years. Even when time and the provision of experienced personnel are not a problem, plenty of money must be spent too. Tons of cash. Moreover, cPanel is not open source. That's an enormous obstacle.

The absence of open source cloud web hosting solutions

There are no open source cloud website hosting systems. There are no open source website hosting CP devices (functioning with the cloud web hosting platform) either. So, to have a cloud web hosting platform at hand, first you must build one. In-house. In the second place, you have to construct the web hosting Control Panel too.

Single server-based web hosting CPs

Today's popular web hosting Control Panels such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are developed to function on a single web server solely. All hosting services (web space, email, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, web hosting CP, backup, and so on) are being served simultaneously on one single web server where these respective one-server web hosting systems and web hosting CPs are set up.

The shortage of open source web hosting Control Panels

So, you have to make a custom web hosting CP that will operate faultlessly and to integrate it within the cloud platform, as if it was an indelible component of it. Appropriate instances of custom made cloud website hosting platforms with custom set up web hosting Control Panels besides us, at Brace Hosting, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud web hosting hardware equipment fares

The minimum contribution required, only for the cloud web hosting hardware provision, is equivalent to somewhere between $60,000 USD and 80,000 dollars. That's omitting the DDoS tool, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you realize how many cloud web hosting systems can be discovered out there... and, in particular, why the web hosting sky is so turquoise... and almost cloudless!
