Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Cloud Hosting : Cloud Hosting with cPanel!! @ Cloud.bg

[consciousmedia]

I recently discovered cloud.bg after using a bunch of different hosting providers, not being really happy about it...it worked, but i didnt get the control I wanted, and it wasn't in Europe.

So I had to do a lot of research before signing up for Cloud.bg, and I tried other major hosting providers, but turns out none of them have cpanel, even if they have good support, its not the same thing.

There is no need to deal with virtual instances and all this system management, its just the cpanel on top of a high avaliability cluster and shared cloud hosting account, which is sweet.

Its 3-4 times cheaper than RackSpace, which i used before…works fine so far! Support replies fast for any questions…seems solid.

The reseller account includes pretty much everything you could ever need in terms of features since it’s WHM/cPanel, shell access if you need that.

I think they have money-back-guarantee as well.. look at: http://www.cloud.bg/en

The first problem i can find is the slow speed to there Bulgaria servers.

I'm in Sweden and I download with 1mbyte per second from them... North American people might do better with an American host.

Do you have a domain hosted there, if so, please remember to provide it to a moderator...

Looking at this host, which seems to be a year old, I cannot find out how they can classify their services as a "cloud". One of the key components of a cloud is geographic diversity, and based on the speed (and what appears to be a single server), I dont think this is a proper cloud.

is absolutely not true and you should prepare yourself when you are making such statements! Please do not offend, but the "Cloud" has nothing to do with a "geographic diversity". Cloud computing infrastructure might be deployed in different data centers, but this is an exception.

Cloud computing infrastructures resolve other issues such as redundancy on a hardware and software level, load-balancing, scalability, flexibility, etc,

As far as for the technology this company is using, you are absolutely wrong. I know these guys and they seem to be a pioneers in this Cloud hosting niche. My company has just implemented the same approach to Cloud hosting and is using the same Linux cloud automation technology, although our set-up is different.

PS: It is a good idea to be more responsible when you are about to make any statements about any hosting providers.
