Cloud Hosting Explanation

Actually, the real cloud hosting solution serves different hosting services such as disk storage, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, hosting CP, backup, and so on, on individual sets of cutting-edge servers. Each single service group forms a cluster. All the servers in a cluster are devoted to serving exclusively the specific service and nothing aside from it. They will all run as one single server, sharing out the service's load in nearly equivalent proportions. If there is a real cloud hosting service, there has to be: a web space cluster, an electronic mail cluster, an FTP cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a web hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these independent service clusters will produce the so-called cloud website hosting system.

The enormous cloud web hosting fraud. Very popular these days.

There is so much confusion revolving around about cloud hosting at present. As you can perceive, cloud hosting does not only sound perplexing, but in fact it is highly complicated. The majority of the people are not at all aware of what cloud hosting is. On the basis of this common ignorance, the "cloud website hosting providers" speculate strongly, just to secure the client and his/her five dollars per month. What a disgrace! A vast shame. This is because in the web hosting business niche there are no rules whatsoever. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The hosting industry has no such supervising institution. This is the reason why the website hosting merchandisers speculate and tell lies blatantly (quite directly, actually) to their customers. Notably the cPanel-based cloud hosting providers. Let's discover how much cloud web hosting they actually can furnish.

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

If a cPanel-based web hosting merchandiser has a cloud website hosting system at hand, which is very improbable, many servers must be bought. Which is also not inexpensive. We will get back to that towards the end of this article. First off, let's find out what the cloud problems are. So, it's very improbable for a cPanel web hosting company to have the cloud web hosting platform at hand, as making one requires years. Even when time and the provision of a professional team are not a problem, lots of cash has to be spent as well. Piles of money. Moreover, cPanel is not open source. That's a vast disadvantage.

The absence of open source cloud hosting solutions

There are no open source cloud hosting systems. There are no open source website hosting Control Panel GUIs (functioning with the cloud website hosting solution) as well. Hence, to have a cloud hosting platform at hand, first of all you have to set up one. In-house. Second of all, you must construct the hosting Control Panel as well.

One server-based web hosting Control Panels

Contemporary web hosting Control Panels such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are constructed to run on one server solely. All web hosting services (disk space, mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, web hosting Control Panel, backup, and so on) are being served at the same time on a single web server where these specific single-server web hosting platforms and web hosting CPs are set up.

The absence of open source Control Panels

So, you have to fabricate an in-house built website hosting CP that will perform impeccably and to add it within the cloud platform, as if it was an inherent part of it. Suitable instances of in-house devised cloud website hosting platforms with custom developed Control Panels besides us, at RaH Services, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud hosting hardware equipment fares

The minimal contribution required, just for the cloud hosting hardware provision, is equivalent to somewhere between $60,000 and $80,000 USD. That's excluding the DDoS apparatus, which is another $15-20,000. Now you are well aware of how many cloud hosting solutions can be encountered out there... and, above all, why the web hosting sky is so azure... and virtually unclouded!
