Description of Cloud Web Hosting

In general, the genuine cloud website hosting solution serves individual web hosting services such as web space, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, Control Panel, backup, and so on, on independent groups of high-end servers. Each individual service set makes a cluster. All the web hosting servers in a cluster are devoted 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 nearly the same proportions. If there is a real cloud website hosting service, there would be: a web space cluster, an email cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a CP cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these autonomous service clusters will generate the so-called cloud web hosting system.

The enormous cloud web hosting swindle. Very common today.

There is so much misunderstanding circulating around about cloud web hosting today. As you can see, cloud website hosting does not only seem complicated, but in fact it is greatly perplexing. Most of the people know nothing about what cloud website hosting is. On the wings of this widespread unawareness, the "cloud hosting companies" speculate strongly, just to secure the customer and his/her 5 bucks a month. What a shame! A vast shame. This is because in the website hosting industry niche there are no stipulations at all. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The website hosting industry has no such supervisory organization. This is why the hosting vendors speculate and lie openly (very directly, in fact) to their clients. Chiefly the cPanel-based cloud hosting providers. Let's ascertain how much cloud hosting they in fact can distribute.

The truth about the cPanel-based "cloud" hosting retailers

If a cPanel-based website hosting trader has a cloud web hosting platform at hand, which is very unbelievable, loads of servers have to be acquired. Which is also not inexpensive. We will get back to that at the end of this story. First off, let's see what the cloud problems are. So, it's quite unbelievable for a cPanel web hosting corporation to keep the cloud website hosting system at hand, because of the fact that developing one demands years. Even when time and the provision of a highly qualified team are not an issue, plenty of money must be spent as well. Stacks of cash. On top of that, cPanel is not open source. That's an immense obstacle.

The deficiency of open source cloud website hosting platforms

There aren't any open source cloud hosting systems. There aren't any open source Control Panel instruments (operating with the cloud website hosting system) as well. Hence, to have a cloud website hosting solution at hand, first you have to set up one. In-house. Secondly, you must make the web hosting CP too.

Single server-based website hosting Control Panels

Famous web hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are constructed to function on one server solely. All hosting services (disk space, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting CP, backup, and so on) are being served at the very same time on a single server where these given single-server website hosting platforms and website hosting Control Panels are set up.

The deficiency of open source web hosting CPs

So, you must construct an in-house built web hosting CP that will run unproblematically and to add it within the cloud system, as if it was an inherent constituent of it. Appropriate instances of in-house constructed cloud web hosting platforms with custom invented website hosting CPs besides us, at Exaquad, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud website hosting hardware provision charges

The smallest investment demanded, only for the cloud website hosting hardware provision, is equivalent to somewhere between 60,000 USD and $80,000. That's omitting the DDoS tool, which is another fifteen-twenty thousand dollars. Now you realize how many cloud website hosting systems can be chanced on out there... and, above all, why the hosting sky is so azure... and virtually cloudless!
