Cloud Computing Hosting


Cloud hosting has been creating quite a buzz around these days. Cloud Hosting is the provision of Cloud Computing resources as a hosted service. Generally, website hosted on a cloud hosting operates on clustered servers where online operations are not limited to a single server. By handling security, load balance and hardware resources virtually the website has access to the processing power of a number of servers that are distributed in real time. Cloud computing hosting is providing Cloud Computing as a service. Most of the companies don’t want the complexity like wasting management time and cost of building their own private cloud.

Cloud Computing is the accumulation of computer resources into a single container and the ability to treat that container as a single resource shared between applications. The computer resources can be processing, storage and network, and when they are aggregated into the container that becomes the cloud. There is then a layer of intelligence that sits between applications and the cloud, distributing resources.
