Cloud Hosting Definition

Actually, the authentic cloud hosting platform serves various hosting services like disk storage, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, hosting CP, backup, and so on, on different groups of deluxe servers. Each individual service group makes a cluster. All the web hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving solely the specific service and nothing aside from it. They will all run as one web server, sharing the service's load in nearly equipollent proportions. If there is a real cloud hosting service, there would be: a data storage cluster, an electronic mail cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a web hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these independent service clusters will generate the so-called cloud website hosting platform.

The gigantic cloud website hosting fraud. Very common now.

There is so much misunderstanding revolving around about cloud hosting today. As you can see, cloud hosting does not only seem complicated, but in reality it is extremely complicated. The majority of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. Based on this common ignorance, the "cloud hosting merchants" speculate feverishly, just to get hold of the customer and his/her five dollars per month. What a shame! A big shame. This is due to the fact that in the hosting business niche there are no stipulations whatsoever. The domain industry has ICANN. The web hosting industry niche has no such self-regulative organization. That is the reason why the web hosting retailers speculate and tell lies openly (quite bluntly, as a matter of fact) to their clients. Chiefly the cPanel-based cloud hosting providers. Let's examine how much cloud hosting they indeed can distribute.

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

If a cPanel-based web hosting merchandiser has a cloud website hosting platform at hand, which is very unlikely, loads of hosting servers must be secured. Which is also not cheap. We will return to that towards the end of this review. But before we do, let's explore what the cloud troubles are. So, it's very unbelievable for a cPanel hosting corporation to keep the cloud web hosting system at hand, for making one takes years. Even when time and the provision of an expert team are not a predicament, plenty of cash has to be spent as well. Tons of cash. What's more, cPanel is not open source. That's an enormous defect.

The deficiency of open source cloud hosting solutions

There aren't any open source cloud website hosting systems. There aren't any open source web hosting CP interfaces (operating with the cloud hosting solution) either. Therefore, to have a cloud hosting solution at hand, first you must devise one. In-house. Second of all, you must fabricate the web hosting Control Panel too.

One server-based web hosting Control Panels

Contemporary web hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are intended to run on one web server exclusively. All web hosting services (disk storage, email, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting Control Panel, backup, etc.) are being served at the very same time on a single server where these specific single-server web hosting systems and web hosting CPs are installed.

The deficiency of open source website hosting Control Panels

So, you must build a custom hosting Control Panel that will perform faultlessly and to add it within the cloud system, as if it was an inbuilt constituent of it. Good instances of custom created cloud website hosting platforms with custom constructed website hosting CPs besides us, at Innowebhost, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud hosting hardware provision fares

The minimal contribution needed, only for the cloud hosting hardware provision, equals somewhere between sixty thousand dollars and eighty thousand dollars. That's excluding the DDoS mechanism, which is another $15-20,000. Now you are well aware of how many cloud hosting systems can be discovered out there... and, above all, why the web hosting sky is so blue... and almost unclouded!
