The pure thruth about the cloud web site hosting service
In general, the real cloud web site hosting platform serves separate hosting services such as disk space, email, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, Control Panel, backup, and so on, on different bunches of cutting-edge servers. Each single service group produces a cluster. All the hosting servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving solely the given service and nothing apart from it. They will all run as one web server, sharing out the service's load in approximately equipollent proportions. If there is a genuine cloud web hosting service, there has to be: a data storage cluster, a mail cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a web page hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these different service clusters will build the so-called cloud website hosting platform.
The colossal cloud webspace hosting swindle. Quite common now.
There is so much confusion revolving around about cloud web hosting at the moment. As you can see,cloud hosting does not only seem complicated, but in reality it is extremely complicated. The majority of the people are not at all aware of what cloud hosting is. On the wings of this common unawareness, the "cloud website hosting merchandisers" speculate intensely, just to secure the customer and his/her 5 bucks a month. What a shame! A vast shame. This is owing to the fact that in the site hosting industry there are no laws at all. The domain industry niche has ICANN. The webspace hosting industry niche has no such self-controlling institution. That is why the hosting suppliers speculate and lie blatantly (quite bluntly, in fact) to their customers. Particularly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's check how much cloud hosting they indeed can supply.
The facts about the cPanel-based "cloud" site hosting retailers
If a cPanel-based site hosting merchandiser has a cloud website hosting platform at hand, which is quite improbable, many hosting servers must be paid for. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that towards the end of this story. But before we do, let's find out what the cloud predicaments are. So, it's quite unbelievable for a cPanel hosting wholesaler to have the cloud web page hosting system at hand, in that setting up one requires years. Even when time and the provision of proficient personnel are not a predicament, plenty of money must be spent too. Mountains of money. Plus, cPanel is not open source. That's an immense disadvantage.
The shortage of open source cloud hosting platforms
There aren't any open source cloud hosting solutions. There are no open source web hosting CP GUIs (working with the cloud website hosting solution) as well. Hence, to have a cloud hosting system at hand, in the first place you have to invent one. In-house. In the second place, you must devise the web hosting CP as well.
Single server-based Control Panels
Modern web site hosting CPs like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are manufactured to operate on one server exclusively. All web space hosting services (disk storage, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, webspace hosting CP, backup, and so on) are being served at one and the same time on a single server where these particular one-server site hosting platforms and web site hosting Control Panels are set up.
The lack of open source website hosting CPs
So, you have to make a custom website hosting Control Panel that will operate impeccably and to incorporate it within the cloud platform, as if it was an inherent part of it. Good instances of in-house created cloud web hosting solutions with in-house made webspace hosting Control Panels are: NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel
Cloud web space hosting hardware equipment expenses
The smallest investment needed, just for the cloud web hosting hardware equipment, amounts to somewhere between 60 thousand dollars and eighty thousand dollars. That's excluding the DDoS apparatus, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you realize how many cloud hosting platforms can be stumbled upon out there... and, above all, why the web hosting sky is so turquoise... and almost cloudless!
