Cloud Hosting Unmasked

Essentially, the genuine cloud hosting solution serves various hosting services like disk storage, electronic mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, web hosting Control Panel, backup, etc., on individual stacks of leading edge web servers. Each separate service set makes a cluster. All the servers in a cluster are devoted to serving only the particular service and nothing beside it. They will all function as one single server, sharing the service's load in nearly equal proportions. If there is an authentic cloud hosting service, there should be: a disk space cluster, a mail cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a stats cluster, a web hosting Control Panel cluster, a backup cluster, etc. All these different service clusters will make the so-called cloud web hosting system.

The mammoth cloud website hosting trick. Quite widespread today.

There is so much confusion circulating around about cloud hosting nowadays. As you can perceive, cloud hosting does not only appear perplexing, but actually it is intensely complicated. The majority of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. On the basis of this universal ignorance, the "cloud website hosting companies" speculate intensely, just to secure the customer and his/her five dollars per month. What a disgrace! A big disgrace. This is due to the fact that in the website hosting industry there are no statutes at all. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The website hosting industry niche has no such legislative body. That is the reason why the hosting suppliers speculate and lie overtly (quite directly, actually) to their clients. Notably the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's determine how much cloud hosting they in fact can provide.

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

If a cPanel-based web hosting vendor has a cloud web hosting solution at hand, which is very unbelievable, lots of hosting servers have to be acquired. Which is also not inexpensive. We will return to that towards the end of this review. First, let's explore what the cloud predicaments are. So, it's quite improbable for a cPanel web hosting trader to keep the cloud web hosting system at hand, because developing one demands years. Even when time and the provision of an expert staff are not a predicament, plenty of money must be invested as well. Tons of cash. Plus, cPanel is not open source. That's a great drawback.

The absence of open source cloud hosting platforms

There aren't any open source cloud web hosting platforms. There are no open source website hosting Control Panel instruments (operating with the cloud web hosting solution) as well. Hence, to have a cloud hosting solution at hand, first you must establish one. In-house. Second of all, you have to invent the web hosting Control Panel as well.

Single server-based web hosting CPs

Famous website hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are built to work on a single web server solely. All web hosting services (disk storage, email, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, statistics, website hosting CP, backup, etc.) are being served simultaneously on a single web server where these given one-server web hosting platforms and website hosting Control Panels are installed.

The absence of open source website hosting CPs

So, you have to make an in-house built website hosting Control Panel that will run flawlessly and to integrate it within the cloud platform, as if it was an indelible part of it. Proper examples of custom invented cloud web hosting platforms with in-house created hosting CPs besides us, at Mnistrat Hosting, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud hosting hardware provision rates

The minimal investment demanded, just for the cloud hosting hardware equipment, is equivalent to somewhere between 60 thousand dollars and 80,000 dollars. That's omitting the DDoS device, which is another $15-20,000 USD. Now you realize how many cloud hosting solutions can be stumbled upon out there... and, especially, why the hosting sky is so turquoise... and practically unclouded!
