Cloud Web Hosting Uncovered

Reseller web site hosting and "THE HUGE CLOUD"

Now, practically every hosting and reseller hosting firm plays with the watchword "cloud hosting". In fact, the website hosting corporations utilizing an actual cloud web hosting system are most likely less than the fingers of your two hands. That's an established fact. Why is it like this? Because it's darned problematical to devise an authentic cloud webspace hosting system. First, you need to select the right people. In the second place, it takes years for them to come up with the cloud website hosting platform. Last, but definitely not least, it takes lots of cash. Stacks of cash. Not every software developer or system administrator can be involved in an assignment such as this one...

A few clouds in the turquoise web space hosting sky

Mull over this: how many hybrid electric vehicle companies exist out there? Toyota was the initial pioneer of the flow production of hybrid cars. Commenced about ten years ago. Recollecting anyone else? Huh? Series production? Come on. Attempt once more. Nissan lately has joined the group... going directly electric with the Leaf prototype. So, let's go back to cloud hosting... It appears to us, the entire web page hosting sky is bright, with very minute clouds around (maybe only a few). :-)

cPanel hosting vs CLOUD HOSTING

How many of the cPanel-based reseller hosting firms out there furnish real cloud web hosting services? Let's not ignore, cPanel was created for and still works only on one server. In no less than 99.99 percent of the cPanel installations in the world, cPanel operates on a single web server. To cut a long story short, the cPanel shared web hosting solution is a single-web-hosting-server-does-it-all sort of a hosting platform. All storage space, electronic mail, database, FTP, web page hosting CP, DNS, etc. tasks are being carried out at the very same time on one single server.

Single-server site hosting environments: the queue issue

Here's an illustration: it's like running 8 software applications concurrently on your PC. The computer's performance inescapably slows down dramatically, because now there is a big queue with tasks waiting to be served or completed (generated by these eight software applications running at one and the same time). So, when the cPanel web space hosting reseller suppliers dub the webspace hosting solutions that are being offered "cloud web page hosting-based", it's a good idea to enquire: "What sort of cloud are you speaking of?"

The condensed mist around the cPanel-based "cloud web site hosting" platform

This so-called "cloud" these cPanel-ardent fellows are hinting at, in actuality, more or less, looks like a vast mist or a heavy smog. Doubtlessly this is not a cloud, even a little one. In the best case, some of the cPanel web hosting vendors (maybe just several) succeed to create a remote database or DNS name server (or servers), and here you are, they swiftly pronounce - we are "in the cloud" now. Yeah, right. Is it a night cloud? Because in the daylight we can't discern it in the sky!
