Is the Answer to Your Hosting Questions In the Cloud? - Image 1

If you or your business is currently looking for a hosting solution, then you have most likely heard everyone talking about the cloud. It has become the catch phrase of this time and it has also become one of the more popular ways to host a website or anything else for that matter.


What Is the Cloud?


If you are new to this concept, then you obviously don't know very much about the cloud. It is nothing like the cumulonimbus clouds that you often see well in advance of a nasty thunderstorm. This is something entirely different. In order to understand what this term is referring to in terms of hosting, you will have to look at computers in an entirely different way.


Instead of having all of the computing power housed in one single box like most computers, cloud computing can access more power from a completely different location. This is all done through super fast data connections and software. This is the key to successful cloud computing and cloud hosting in general. If the data centre does not have a reliable speedy internet connection, then cloud computing would not function correctly.


Why Choose a Cloud Computing Solution?


This is perhaps the most important question that you will be asking yourself. What makes this type of computing the better choice? Why should you choose it over other types of hosting solutions? In order for people to make this choice, there must be some kind of advantage to it. There are plenty of them.

The two most important advantages to this type of hosting are price and scalability. These are two very serious things that every business should be considering and cloud computing delivers on both of them.


Scale Up or Down Any Time


The power of the cloud gives your company the ability to scale up or down at any given time. No one has to give the okay either. It is all done with software. If there is a sudden spike in traffic, the cloud host will pull the necessary resources to handle the sudden surge in traffic. When the traffic slows down, the server will release those resources back. This is an excellent way for hosting to work. It saves on resources and is more efficient.


The Cost Benefits


This is the area where most people stand up and take notice. There are several very obvious cost benefits to this type of hosting; the first being that you only pay for the resources that you use. This can save companies a tremendous amount of money. This is usually the main reason for choosing this type of hosting.


Choosing a Provider


Now that you know the benefits, it seems like the obvious choice is to go with a cloud hosting provider. Choosing a cloud hosting provider is rather simple. You can use the internet to help you locate a reliable hosting company. Just make sure you do a little price and feature comparisons before you decide on a host.
