Features of Cloud Hosting

Cloud

Many cloud web providers provide unlimited monthly data transfers, so consider other criteria when deciding which package is ideal for your company. If you’re looking for something “unlimited,” whether it’s data or storage, make sure to read the tiny print to avoid any unpleasant surprises. To put it another way, double-check that your definition of limitless matches the one used by the hosting service. It’s possible that they’re two completely different entities.

When it comes to storage, we’ve observed that cloud providers often provide hard discs or solid-state drives with capacities ranging from 100GB to 200GB. On rare occasions, though, you may come upon a web server that provides unlimited storage. Of course, when it comes to “unlimited” anything, there are always constraints. Solid-state drives are faster than hard-drive drives, although they have less store capacity. A standard hard drive is the way to go if you need a lot of storage.

When it comes to server operating systems, Linux is often the first choice. Some firms, however, also provide Windows hosting. If you have server-side programmes that require Windows, such as SQL Server or a custom.NET application, you must ensure that your web host offers Windows hosting.

You’ll also want a web host that provides responsive customer assistance 24/7. When problems emerge, forums, knowledge bases, and tutorials are helpful, but nothing beats getting another human on the phone (or at least in a web chat) to help.

Lastly, security is also quite important. If you want to offer products or services online or ecommerce service, you’ll need to learn about Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS). These technologies encrypt data as it travels between a customer’s computer and your company’s servers, making it unhackable.
