A review of Risatech CloudHosting

We, at voffice.my, have picked 'Risatech CloudHosting' to be our present domain name and hosting distributor. Therefore we suppose that this short assessment of 'Risatech CloudHosting' is perhaps going to be very useful for other people from all around the Globe in need of domain name and web hosting services. We say folks from all over the World, because the mere fact is that 'Risatech CloudHosting' presently furnishes domain and hosting services in several data center facility locations: in the United States of America (Chicago, IL), in Great Britain (Maidenhead, 20 miles outside London), in Sweden (Stockholm) and in Australia (Sydney). That way, embracing nearly the entire Globe. At least from the point of view of the World Wide Web. So, here is what you could expect from 'Risatech CloudHosting' in a nutshell:

Shared Web Page Hosting Services

The first detail we, at voffice.my, have observed is the cheap prices of the shared web space hosting services furnished by 'Risatech CloudHosting'. Shared doesn't sound very well, does it? Well, that's what it is referred to as: shared web hosting. The good news here is that the hosting packages furnished by 'Risatech CloudHosting' are driven by an in-house designed, state-of-the-art cloud web hosting solution (each web hosting service, like email, databases, web page hosting Control Panel, web space, DNS, statistics, and so on, is being dealt with by an independent group of servers in a cluster). This is something EVERY cPanel web hosting vendor on the Globe will have enormous predicaments with, because cPanel is a single server based web hosting platform (each web hosting service, like electronic mail, databases, site hosting CP, storage space, DNS, statistics, etc., is being served by one and the same server), cPanel is not open source (therefore the cPanel-based web site hosting vendors are unable to include extra functionality and manipulate it the way they need it) and there is no open source file system (they have to devise their own file system), which is the foundation of any cloud web hosting service. Let's get back to the shared web page hosting plans, which are powered by an actual clustered website hosting system. With a shared web page hosting package, each client pays only for his/her account, thus retaining the web space hosting price very low (since numerous clients use the same server). In short, a shared hosting account, which runs on a cloud site hosting system, allows you to pay only for the reserves that you actually need, evading a situation where you pay for an advanced webspace hosting package that you cannot truly utilize, or for a basic hosting account that cannot host your web page. The option to upgrade your account from one package to another with only 2 mouse clicks gives you the flexibility to begin with a basic package and upgrade as your site grows. Thus, you economize money that you can spend on publicizing the web site while it is still new. Each web space hosting account provided by 'Risatech CloudHosting' boasts an online website building tool and over 40 popular script software platforms such as WordPress, Joomla, Zen Cart and Moodle that will spare you 100s of dollars for web site design services. 'Risatech CloudHosting' supplies shared hosting accounts in several different regions around the World. There is one data center facility in Chicago covering the US and Canada; two European datacenters - in Great Britain and in Scandinavia; and another one in Australia, which covers the Asia Pacific region. In this way, nearly the entire World is encompassed to provide you and your website's visitors with a steady and dependable hosting solution at a preferred place. Altogether, the shared hosting accounts offered 'Risatech CloudHosting' are really well appointed and come at a very affordable price (starting from $2.75 for the Beginner plan).

Semi-dedicated Hosting Servers

To people with little to no experience, a VPS server may seem troublesome to handle. That's probably why 'Risatech CloudHosting' also hosts semi-dedicated web hosting servers in its principal US server farm in Chicago. Managing these accounts is similar to handling a normal shared web page hosting plan through a CP user interface. They have all the functionalities of a shared webspace hosting plan such as a free-of-charge web site building tool and a web app installation tool, but the system resource quota provided by a semi-dedicated server package is many times larger than that of a shared web space hosting account. For instance, the CPU power that can be utilized is about FIVE times as much as compared with the shared hosting plans. When juxtaposed to a shared site hosting account, the number of database queries added within the semi-dedicated hosting packages is great: 90 000 / hour. An unlimited hosted domain allowance is a norm too. The semi-dedicated plans do not offer root privileges (we, at voffice.my, think that this is a slight weak point), but the good point is that they are administered through the very same website hosting CP GUI as the shared web hosting plans. This signifies that a user-friendly GUI is offered to all clients who do not have enough confidence to manage a private virtual server, but at the same time are in need of more power and features than a private virtual web hosting server can deliver. This is so owing to the fact that the semi-dedicated web hosting servers share the system resources of the very same powerful high-class web hosting servers as the ones which accommodate the virtual private web server accounts, still, the number of the semi-dedicated web servers is quite small (somewhere between twenty to thirty per physical server), while the private virtual hosting servers can reach a much higher number (eighty to a hundred and twenty per physical machine). Having that information in mind, the semi-dedicated servers provided by 'Risatech CloudHosting' can be dubbed as being amazingly inexpensive (as far as cost is concerned), commencing from $20.00 for the Fast plan.

Dedicated Web Servers

In voffice.my's opinion, large websites such as social networks, community and corporate portals or popular online stores with 1000s of clients require a much more powerful hosting environment. It seems that the folks from 'Risatech CloudHosting' have arrived at the same conclusion as well. To live up to its customers' demands, 'Risatech CloudHosting' delivers a bouquet of dedicated servers that can cope with millions of daily hits. That assessment rests on the hardware specifications the web hosting servers ship with: multi-core processors, up to four GB of RAM, two thousand gigabytes of disk space and Gigabit NICs will undoubtedly ensure the fast and stable performance of any kind of site. According to 'Risatech CloudHosting', the original hardware specifications can be upgraded for more system resource-demanding websites. We, from voffice.my, think that all dedicated server specs supplied by 'Risatech CloudHosting' are also suitable for initiating a hosting reseller business as each and every web server arrives with free-of-cost billing transaction software and a free-of-charge domain reseller account. Unlickily, the dedicated servers supplied by 'Risatech CloudHosting' are all unmanaged. We, at voffice.my, regard this as a small problem, which can be adjusted by paying a monthly fee of $32.00 USD. So, if you demand help, the Managed Services upgrade provides a few additional services such as a routine backup, software installation, web server surveillance and troubleshooting procedures. An assortment of web space hosting CP (CP) user interfaces are available with each of the dedicated hosting servers - Hepsia, cPanel and DirectAdmin. Our (voffice.my's) forecast is that the amazing drag and drop File Manager added in the Hepsia webspace hosting CP will probably render the utilization of any FTP client useless. Our (voffice.my's) conclusion is that the dedicated servers supplied by 'Risatech CloudHosting' don't seem to be very cheap (still the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and the unmetered hosted domain name allowance will beyond doubt make you smile), beginning from $115.00 for the Xeon Scalable 6c package.
