Definition of Cloud Web Hosting

Essentially, the authentic cloud web hosting platform serves distinct website hosting services like data storage, email, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting CP, backup, and so on, on independent bunches of cutting-edge servers. Each specific service set creates a cluster. All the web servers in a cluster are dedicated to serving only the specific service and nothing else. They will all perform as one web server, sharing out the service's load in practically the same proportions. If there is a real cloud web hosting service, there has to be: a data storage cluster, an email cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a web hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these separate service clusters will beget the so-called cloud web hosting system.

The mammoth cloud website hosting trick. Very popular at the moment.

There is so much speculation going around about cloud hosting these days. As you can see, cloud web hosting does not only appear perplexing, but in reality it is very complicated. The majority of the people are not at all aware of what cloud web hosting is. On the wings of this widely spread ignorance, the "cloud website hosting firms" speculate feverishly, just to secure the client and his/her 5 dollars a month. What a shame! A vast shame. This is due to the fact that in the website hosting industry there are no principles at all. The registro de dominio industry has ICANN. The web hosting industry niche has no such administrative organization. That is the reason why the alojamiento web suppliers speculate and lie openly (very directly, actually) to their clients. Especially the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's discover how much cloud web hosting they in reality can supply.

The truth about the cPanel-based "cloud" web hosting vendors

If a cPanel-based web hosting vendor has a cloud web hosting solution at hand, which is very unbelievable, numerous servers have to be purchased. Which is also not inexpensive. We will return to that towards the end of this story. But before we do, let's examine what the cloud complications are. So, it's very unbelievable for a cPanel web hosting merchant to keep the cloud web hosting system at hand, in that making one takes years. Even when time and the provision of a highly qualified team are not an issue, loads of cash has to be spent as well. Heaps of cash. Plus, cPanel is not open source. That's a vast problem.

The deficiency of open source cloud web hosting solutions

There are no open source cloud web hosting systems. There aren't any open source web hosting Control Panel interfaces (running with the cloud website hosting platform) either. Therefore, to have a cloud web hosting platform at hand, in the first place you have to build one. In-house. In the second place, you have to invent the web hosting CP as well.

Single server-based CPs

Popular web hosting CPs like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are intended to function on one single web server solely. All website hosting services (web space, electronic mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, hosting CP, backup, etc.) are being served concurrently on one web server where these particular one-server hosting systems and website hosting Control Panels are set up.

The shortage of open source web hosting CPs

So, you have to invent an in-house built hosting Control Panel that will run perfectly and to integrate it within the cloud system, as if it was an ingrained constituent of it. Suitable instances of in-house developed cloud web hosting solutions with in-house built web hosting CPs besides us, at Hosting Digimarketing NC, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud web hosting hardware provision fees

The smallest investment needed, only for the cloud web hosting hardware provision, amounts to somewhere between $60,000 and 80 thousand dollars. That's excluding the DDoS apparatus, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you realize how many cloud web hosting platforms can be found out there... and, above all, why the web hosting sky is so turquoise... and practically cloudless!
