How Cloud Website Hosting Operates

Actually, the real cloud website hosting solution serves individual web hosting services like disk space, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting Control Panel, backup, etc., on autonomous groups of top-notch servers. Each individual service pack constitutes a cluster. All the web hosting servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving only the given service and nothing aside from it. They will all run as one single web server, sharing the service's load in approximately equal proportions. If there is a real cloud website hosting service, there has to be: a data storage cluster, a mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these autonomous service clusters will create the so-called cloud website hosting platform.

The gigantic cloud web hosting deceit. Quite popular these days.

There is so much speculation going around about cloud hosting these days. As you can perceive, cloud website hosting does not only seem complicated, but in fact it is supremely complicated. Most of the people are not at all aware of what cloud website hosting is. On the wings of this widely spread unawareness, the "cloud web hosting merchandisers" speculate strongly, just to get hold of the customer and his/her 5 dollars a month. What a disgrace! A vast disgrace. This is owing to the fact that in the website hosting industry niche there are no bylaws whatsoever. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The web hosting industry niche has no such self-governing institution. That is why the hosting distributors speculate and tell lies overtly (quite bluntly, actually) to their customers. Especially the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's learn how much cloud web hosting they actually can provide.

The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" web hosting firms

If a cPanel-based hosting vendor has a cloud web hosting system at hand, which is quite unbelievable, numerous servers must be bought. Which is also not cheap. We will get back to that at the end of this article. First off, let's find out what the cloud troubles are. So, it's very unbelievable for a cPanel web hosting wholesaler to keep the cloud website hosting system at hand, because of the fact that building one requires years. Even when time and the provision of professional personnel are not a predicament, plenty of cash must be invested too. Tons of cash. In addition, cPanel is not open source. That's an immense problem.

The absence of open source cloud website hosting solutions

There are no open source cloud web hosting platforms. There aren't any open source CP user interfaces (operating with the cloud web hosting solution) as well. Hence, to have a cloud website hosting solution at hand, first you must set up one. In-house. Second of all, you have to invent the website hosting Control Panel as well.

One server-based web hosting Control Panels

Today's popular hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are built to run on one server exclusively. All website hosting services (data storage, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, web hosting CP, backup, etc.) are being served concurrently on one single web server where these specific one-server hosting systems and website hosting Control Panels are set up.

The absence of open source website hosting Control Panels

So, you must establish a custom web hosting CP that will perform impeccably and to accommodate it within the cloud platform, as if it was a natural constituent of it. Appropriate examples of custom made cloud web hosting solutions with in-house constructed web hosting Control Panels besides us, at WebHostBear, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud website hosting hardware equipment expenses

The minimal contribution demanded, only for the cloud website hosting hardware provision, equals somewhere between sixty thousand dollars and 80,000 dollars. That's omitting the DDoS mechanism, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you realize how many cloud website hosting solutions can be detected out there... and, especially, why the web hosting sky is so turquoise... and almost unclouded!
