Cloud Website Hosting Explanation

Actually, the actual cloud website hosting platform serves separate web hosting services such as disk storage, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, web hosting Control Panel, backup, etc., on independent bunches of cutting-edge servers. Each single service set forms a cluster. All the web servers in a cluster are devoted to serving solely the given service and nothing else. They will all work as one single server, sharing out the service's load in approximately equivalent proportions. If there is an authentic cloud website hosting service, there would be: a disk space cluster, an electronic mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these different service clusters will generate the so-called cloud web hosting system.

The colossal cloud website hosting fraud. Very popular today.

There is so much confusion circulating around about cloud web hosting at present. As you can perceive, cloud website hosting does not only seem perplexing, but in fact it is excessively complicated. The majority of the people are not at all aware of what cloud website hosting is. On the basis of this popular ignorance, the "cloud web hosting traders" speculate strongly, just to get hold of the customer and his/her five bucks a month. What a disgrace! A huge shame. This is owing to the fact that in the web hosting industry there are no decrees whatsoever. The domain industry has ICANN. The website hosting industry has no such regulatory body. This is the reason why the web hosting providers speculate and tell lies blatantly (quite bluntly, in fact) to their customers. Chiefly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's examine how much cloud hosting they actually can supply.

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

If a cPanel-based web hosting retailer has a cloud web hosting platform at hand, which is quite unbelievable, lots of hosting servers must be secured. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that at the end of this story. First, let's examine what the cloud problems are. So, it's very improbable for a cPanel hosting company to keep the cloud website hosting system at hand, because of the fact that establishing one requires years. Even when time and the provision of highly qualified personnel are not an issue, loads of money must be invested as well. Tons of cash. Plus, cPanel is not open source. That's an enormous drawback.

The absence of open source cloud website hosting solutions

There are no open source cloud website hosting environments. There aren't any open source web hosting Control Panel devices (functioning with the cloud web hosting solution) either. Therefore, to have a cloud website hosting platform at hand, in the first place you have to establish one. In-house. Second of all, you have to invent the Control Panel too.

One server-based website hosting Control Panels

Contemporary web hosting Control Panels such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are developed to operate on a single web server only. All web hosting services (storage space, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, web hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on) are being served at the same time on one server where these particular single-server website hosting platforms and hosting CPs are set up.

The absence of open source website hosting Control Panels

So, you must make an in-house built website hosting CP that will run unproblematically and to add it within the cloud platform, as if it was a natural part of it. Suitable instances of in-house built cloud web hosting solutions with custom developed website hosting Control Panels besides us, at Melanesia Web Hosting, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud website hosting hardware equipment expenses

The minimal contribution required, just for the cloud website hosting hardware equipment, amounts to somewhere between 60,000 USD and 80 thousand dollars. That's excluding the DDoS mechanism, which is another 15-20,000 dollars. Now you do know how many cloud website hosting platforms can be stumbled upon out there... and, above all, why the web hosting sky is so azure... and virtually unclouded!
