Cloud Web Hosting Definition

In general, the real cloud website hosting platform serves different web hosting services like storage space, email, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting CP, backup, etc., on separate bunches of very advanced web servers. Each different service set creates a cluster. All the web servers in a cluster are devoted to serving exclusively the specific service and nothing else. They will all function as one single server, sharing the service's load in almost equal proportions. If there is an authentic cloud website hosting service, there should be: a disk storage cluster, an email cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a web hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these autonomous service clusters will compose the so-called cloud web hosting system.

The huge cloud web hosting scam. Quite modern nowadays.

There is so much speculation revolving around about cloud web hosting now. As you can perceive, cloud website hosting does not only appear perplexing, but in fact it is excessively complicated. Most of the people know nothing about what cloud website hosting is. On the wings of this common unawareness, the "cloud web hosting corporations" speculate fiercely, just to get hold of the client and his/her five bucks a month. What a disgrace! A vast disgrace. This is owing to the fact that in the web hosting business niche there are no bylaws at all. The domain industry niche has ICANN. The web hosting industry has no such self-governing organization. That is the reason why the web hosting suppliers speculate and tell lies overtly (quite bluntly, actually) to their clients. Notably the cPanel-based cloud hosting providers. Let's find out how much cloud web hosting they in fact can offer.

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

If a cPanel-based website hosting trader has a cloud website hosting platform at hand, which is very unbelievable, many web servers have to be secured. Which is also not inexpensive. We will get back to that at the end of this story. But before we do, let's find out what the cloud problems are. So, it's very unlikely for a cPanel web hosting retailer to have the cloud website hosting system at hand, because of the fact that establishing one requires years. Even when time and the provision of a professional team are not an issue, a lot of cash has to be spent too. Piles of money. On top of that, cPanel is not open source. That's a vast disadvantage.

The shortage of open source cloud website hosting platforms

There aren't any open source cloud website hosting platforms. There aren't any open source hosting Control Panel GUIs (functioning with the cloud web hosting system) as well. Hence, to have a cloud website hosting system at hand, in the first place you must devise one. In-house. In the second place, you must create the website hosting Control Panel as well.

Single server-based hosting Control Panels

Modern web hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are set up to operate on one single web server solely. All hosting services (storage space, electronic mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, Control Panel, backup, etc.) are being served concurrently on one server where these specific single-server web hosting systems and web hosting CPs are set up.

The shortage of open source hosting Control Panels

So, you must construct an in-house built web hosting Control Panel that will work flawlessly and to accommodate it within the cloud platform, as if it was an ingrained component of it. Proper instances of in-house built cloud web hosting platforms with custom made CPs besides us, at SuNombre.co - Dominios y Hosting, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud website hosting hardware provision expenses

The minimum contribution demanded, only for the cloud website hosting hardware equipment, is equivalent to somewhere between 60 thousand dollars and eighty thousand dollars. That's omitting the DDoS device, which is another 15-20 thousand dollars. Now you do know how many cloud website hosting solutions can be found out there... and, in particular, why the hosting sky is so turquoise... and almost unclouded!
