cPanel-based Cloud Website Hosting Services
Reseller website hosting and "THE BIG CLOUD"
Now, virtually every web hosting and reseller hosting service provider speculates with the saying "cloud hosting". Actually, the web hosting distributors availing of an actual cloud hosting system are maybe less than the fingers of your own two hands. That's worldwide. Why is it so? Because it's doggone tough to come up with an actual cloud site hosting platform. First off, you have to have the suitable persons. Second, it takes years for them to devise the cloud hosting platform. Finally, it takes a lot of cash. Loads of cash. Not every developer or sysadmin can take part in a venture like this one...
A couple of clouds in the turquoise site hosting horizon
Meditate upon that: how many hybrid electric vehicle companies are out there? Toyota was the original pioneer of the series production of hybrid cars. Commenced almost 10 years ago. Recollecting anyone else? Huh? Series production? Come on. Try again. Nissan recently has joined the gang... going straightway electric with the Leaf model. So, let's go back to cloud website hosting... It appears to us, the whole web space hosting horizon is sapphire, with very tiny clouds around (perhaps just several). :-)
cPanel site hosting v. CLOUD WEB SITE HOSTING
How many of the cPanel-based reseller hosting firms out there offer genuine cloud hosting services? Let's not forget, cPanel was set up for and still operates exclusively on a single server. In no less than 99.99 percent of the cPanel installations in the world, cPanel operates on one hosting server. In brief, the cPanel-based web hosting platform is a single-web-server-does-it-all type of a web page hosting platform. All web space, e-mail, database, File Transfer Protocol, website hosting CP, DNS, etc. tasks are being served at the very same time on a single hosting server.
Single-server web page hosting environments: the queue predicament
Here's an instance: it's like running eight software applications at the same time on your computer. The PC's performance inescapably slows down significantly, due to the fact that now there is a vast queue with requests awaiting to be served or completed (initiated by these 8 software applications running at the same time). Thus, when the cPanel-based website hosting reseller firms call the webspace hosting services on offer "cloud web page hosting-based", it's a good idea to question them: "What kind of cloud are you citing?"
The thick smog around the cPanel-based "cloud site hosting" platform
This so-called "cloud" these cPanel-ardent blokes are referring to, in reality, to a certain degree, looks like a huge mist or a dense smog. Certainly this is not a cloud, even a little one. In the best case, some of the cPanel hosting firms (maybe only a few) succeed to configure a remote database or DNS name server (or servers), and here we go, they instantly claim - we are "in the cloud" already. Yeah, right. Is it a night cloud? Because in the daylight we can't recognize it on the horizon!
