cPanel-based Cloud Web Space Hosting Solutions
Reseller web page hosting and "THE GREAT CLOUD"
Nowadays, almost each and every web hosting and reseller hosting company speculates with the catchword "cloud hosting". In reality, the site hosting companies working with a genuine cloud hosting platform are presumably less than the fingers of your two hands. That's a fact. Why is it like that? Because it's damn troublesome to erect an authentic cloud hosting system. In the first place, you have to have the proper persons. In the second place, it takes years for them to erect the cloud site hosting platform. Last, but definitely not least, it takes lots of cash. Stacks of money. Not every software developer or sysadmin can participate in a venture like this one...
A couple of clouds in the blue web hosting sky
Ruminate about that: how many hybrid car makers exist out there? Toyota was the primary pioneer of the repetitive flow production of hybrid cars. Commenced about 10 years ago. Recollecting anyone else? Huh? Serial production? Come on. Attempt again. Nissan recently has joined the band... going directly electric with the Leaf prototype. So, let's return to cloud web page hosting... It appears to us, the entire site hosting horizon is cloudless, with very small clouds around (probably only several). :-)
cPanel-based webspace hosting vs CLOUD SITE HOSTING
How many of the cPanel-based reseller hosting service providers in existence offer genuine cloud hosting services? Let's not ignore, cPanel was constructed for and still operates exclusively on one hosting server. In no less than 99.99% of the cPanel installations in the world, cPanel operates on one server. To put it briefly, the cPanel-based hosting solution is a one-single-web-server-does-it-all sort of a web page hosting platform. All storage space, e-mail, database, FTP, webspace hosting Control Panel, DNS, etc. tasks are being executed at the same time on a single hosting server.
Single-server hosting solutions: the queue problem
Here's an illustration: it's like running eight software applications at one and the same time on your PC. The PC's operation inevitably slows down significantly, because of the fact that now there is a lengthy queue with tasks waiting to be served or fulfilled (created by these eight software applications running at the same time). So, when the cPanel-based web site hosting reseller suppliers dub the website hosting solutions on offer "cloud site hosting-based", it's good to enquire: "What type of cloud are you talking about?"
The heavy fog around the cPanel-based "cloud web site hosting" platform
This so-called "cloud" these cPanel-dedicated boys are citing, in fact, more or less, looks like a huge haze or a heavy smog. Of course this is not a cloud, even a little one. In the best-case scenario, some of the cPanel hosting distributors (probably only a few) succeed to create a remote database or DNS server (or servers), and here we go, they rapidly announce - we are "in the cloud" now. Yeah, right. Is it a nighttime cloud? Because in the daytime we can't distinguish it in the sky!
