What is Cloud Hosting?

Cloud hosting is the latest form of hosting, where the resources required for maintaining your website are spread across more than one web server, and are rendered as per need basis.

Cloud Hosting

The main advantage of cloud hosting is that it reduces chances of any downtimes.

The cloud hosting allows you to manage peak loads easily, without facing any bandwidth issues. Your website does not rely on just one server, rather a cluster of servers that work together. This cluster is termed as "cloud".

Example of Cloud Hosting
The best example is Google.
You might not be aware of it. However you are already doing cloud hosting by checking your e-mail via Gmail. No wonder you see any downtimes in their service.

How cloud hosting Works?
Each server in the cloud carry out a particular set of tasks. In case of failure of any of the servers in the cloud, other server(s) temporarily takes up the job and hence the website and services offered runs un-interrupted.
