In general, the genuine cloud website hosting solution serves different hosting services such as disk space, electronic mail, FTP, databases, DNS, statistics, web hosting CP, backup, etc., on individual groups of very powerful servers. Each specific service set creates a cluster. All the servers in a cluster are devoted to serving solely the particular service and nothing apart from it. They will all operate as one server, sharing the service's load in almost the same proportions. If there is a genuine cloud website hosting service, there has to be: a disk space cluster, a mail cluster, a File Transfer Protocol cluster, database clusters (MySQL/PostgreSQL), a DNS cluster, a statistics cluster, a web hosting CP cluster, a backup cluster, and so on. All these independent service clusters will create the so-called cloud website hosting platform.

The massive cloud web hosting scam. Very modern nowadays.

There is so much misunderstanding circulating around about cloud hosting today. As you can see, cloud website hosting does not only sound complicated, but in reality it is intensely complicated. Most of the people are not at all aware of what cloud website hosting is. Based on this popular ignorance, the "cloud web hosting traders" speculate eagerly, just to get hold of the customer and his/her five dollars a month. What a disgrace! A vast disgrace. This is owing to the fact that in the website hosting business niche there are no principles at all. The domain industry niche has ICANN. The website hosting industry has no such regulatory institution. This is the reason why the website hosting merchants speculate and tell lies blatantly (quite directly, actually) to their customers. Particularly the cPanel-based cloud web hosting providers. Let's discover how much cloud web hosting they in reality can offer.

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

If a cPanel-based web hosting merchant has a cloud web hosting platform at hand, which is quite unlikely, numerous web hosting servers must be bought. Which is also not inexpensive. We will return to that at the end of this review. First off, let's explore what the cloud troubles are. So, it's quite unbelievable for a cPanel hosting firm to keep the cloud hosting system at hand, for creating one demands years. Even when time and the provision of an experienced staff are not a predicament, loads of cash has to be spent as well. Mountains of cash. What's more, cPanel is not open source. That's a big disadvantage.

The absence of open source cloud website hosting environments

There are no open source cloud website hosting environments. There aren't any open source CP devices (operating with the cloud hosting platform) as well. So, to have a cloud website hosting platform at hand, in the first place you must build one. In-house. Second of all, you must establish the CP as well.

One server-based website hosting Control Panels

Popular web hosting Control Panels like cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc. are invented to run on one server exclusively. All hosting services (disk space, email, FTP, databases, DNS, stats, Control Panel, backup, etc.) are being served simultaneously on a single server where these particular single-server web hosting systems and web hosting Control Panels are installed.

The lack of open source Control Panels

So, you have to set up an in-house built web hosting Control Panel that will operate faultlessly and to incorporate it within the cloud platform, as if it was an inherent component of it. Suitable instances of custom built cloud web hosting systems with custom made web hosting Control Panels besides us, at Diligo Host, are MediaTemple and FreeHostia.

Cloud website hosting hardware provision costs

The minimal contribution wanted, just for the cloud website hosting hardware equipment, equals somewhere between sixty thousand dollars and $80,000 USD. That's excluding the DDoS apparatus, which is another 15-20,000 dollars. Now you do know how many cloud website hosting platforms can be found out there... and, especially, why the hosting sky is so blue... and virtually unclouded!
