In general, the real cloud hosting platform serves distinct website hosting services such as web space, electronic mail, File Transfer Protocol, databases, DNS, stats, website hosting Control Panel, backup, etc., on separate bunches of deluxe web servers. Each particular service set constitutes a cluster. All the hosting servers in a cluster are devoted to serving solely the specific service and nothing apart from it. They will all function as one server, sharing the service's load in nearly equivalent proportions. If there is a real cloud hosting service, there would be: a disk 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, etc. All these individual service clusters will create the so-called cloud web hosting platform.

The huge cloud website hosting deceit. Very modern nowadays.

There is so much confusion circulating around about cloud hosting at the moment. As you can see, cloud hosting does not only sound perplexing, but in reality it is extremely perplexing. The majority of the people know nothing about what cloud hosting is. On the basis of this popular unawareness, the "cloud website hosting distributors" speculate fiercely, just to secure the client and his/her five dollars a month. What a disgrace! A big disgrace. This is due to the fact that in the website hosting industry niche there are no regulations whatsoever. The domain name industry niche has ICANN. The hosting industry has no such administrative institution. That is the reason why the website hosting suppliers speculate and tell lies overtly (very directly, in fact) to their clients. Chiefly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's ascertain how much cloud hosting they indeed can offer.

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

If a cPanel-based website hosting retailer has a cloud web hosting solution at hand, which is quite unbelievable, lots of servers have to be paid for. Which is also not inexpensive. We will return to that at the end of this review. But before we do, let's see what the cloud complications are. So, it's very improbable for a cPanel hosting provider to keep the cloud website hosting platform at hand, owing to the fact that creating one requires years. Even when time and the provision of experienced personnel are not a problem, loads of cash has to be invested as well. Stacks of cash. In addition, cPanel is not open source. That's a big obstacle.

The lack of open source cloud hosting systems

There are no open source cloud website hosting systems. There are no open source web hosting Control Panel tools (working with the cloud web hosting platform) as well. Therefore, to have a cloud hosting system at hand, first you must fabricate one. In-house. In the second place, you must devise the web hosting Control Panel as well.

Single server-based web hosting CPs

Modern hosting CPs such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are made to perform on one server only. All web hosting services (web space, mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting CP, backup, and so on) are being served at one and the same time on one single server where these specific single-server web hosting platforms and website hosting CPs are installed.

The lack of open source website hosting Control Panels

So, you have to develop an in-house built web hosting Control Panel that will run faultlessly and to include it within the cloud system, as if it was a natural component of it. Appropriate instances of in-house built cloud web hosting solutions with custom invented web hosting CPs besides us, at SD-Internet-Service, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud hosting hardware equipment fees

The smallest contribution demanded, only for the cloud hosting hardware equipment, equals somewhere between 60 thousand dollars and 80,000 USD. That's excluding the DDoS device, which is another fifteen-twenty thousand dollars. Now you do know how many cloud hosting platforms can be encountered out there... and, especially, why the web hosting sky is so azure... and virtually cloudless!
