Curious details about the cloud web page hosting service

Essentially, the actual cloud web hosting platform serves separate hosting services like disk storage, electronic mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, web page hosting CP, backup, etc., on autonomous groups of very powerful web servers. Each specific service group produces a cluster. All the hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving exclusively the specific service and nothing else. They will all run as one single server, sharing the service's load in practically equal proportions. If there is a real cloud web hosting service, there would be: a data storage cluster, an email cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a website hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these autonomous service clusters will render the so-called cloud web page hosting platform.

The mammoth cloud web space hosting deceit. Quite common at the moment.

There is so much confusion circulating around about cloud web hosting these days. As you can perceive,cloud hosting does not only appear perplexing, but actually it is extremely complicated. Most of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. Based on this popular ignorance, the "cloud website hosting firms" speculate fervently, just to secure the client and his/her five bucks a month. What a disgrace! A big shame. This is due to the fact that in the web hosting business niche there are no statutes whatsoever. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The web space hosting industry has no such regulatory body. This is why the hosting providers speculate and lie openly (very directly, as a matter of fact) to their customers. Especially the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's learn how much cloud hosting they in reality can deliver.

The truth about the cPanel-based "cloud" website hosting distributors

If a cPanel-based website hosting vendor has a cloud webspace hosting solution at hand, which is very unlikely, a lot of hosting servers have to 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 troubles are. So, it's quite improbable for a cPanel hosting merchant to keep the cloud web hosting platform at hand, for developing one takes years. Even when time and the provision of a professional team are not a predicament, lots of money has to be invested as well. Heaps of cash. What's more, cPanel is not open source. That's a great downside.

The deficiency of open source cloud web page hosting environments

There aren't any open source cloud web space hosting platforms. There aren't any open source hosting CP interfaces (working with the cloud web page hosting system) either. Hence, to have a cloud web site hosting platform at hand, first of all you have to establish one. In-house. Second of all, you must set up the web site hosting CP too.

Single server-based webspace hosting CPs

Modern web page hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are devised to perform on one single web server exclusively. All web page hosting services (data storage, email, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, site hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on) are being served concurrently on one single web server where these given single-server website hosting systems and web site hosting CPs are set up.

The absence of open source web page hosting Control Panels

So, you have to fabricate a custom web site hosting Control Panel that will operate unproblematically and to accommodate it within the cloud platform, as if it was a natural component of it. Appropriate examples of custom built cloud website hosting systems with in-house made web space hosting Control Panels are: Zzyb Design, NTCHosting, Lonex, Exclusive Hosting, FreeHostia, OpenHost, 50Webs, 100WebSpace, Fateback, MediaTemple and ResellersPanel

Cloud web page hosting hardware equipment prices

The smallest investment required, only for the cloud site hosting hardware provision, amounts to somewhere between 60,000 dollars and 80,000 dollars. That's omitting the DDoS apparatus, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you are well aware of how many cloud website hosting solutions can be discovered out there... and, above all, why the web hosting sky is so blue... and nearly unclouded!
