Customize your Cloud Server

The cloud is commonly used to refer to several servers connected to the internet that can be leased as part of a software or application service. Cloud-based services can include web hosting, data hosting and sharing, and software or application use.

‘The cloud’ can also refer to cloud computing, where several servers are linked together to share the load. This means that instead of using one single powerful machine, complex processes can be distributed across multiple smaller computers.

One of the advantages of cloud storage is that there are many distributed resources acting as one – often called federated storage clouds. This makes the cloud very tolerant of faults, due to the distribution of data. Use of the cloud tends to reduce the creation of different versions of files,due to shared access to documents, files and data.

A cloud server is a pooled, centralized server resource that is hosted and delivered over a network—typically the Internet—and accessed on demand by multiple users.Cloud servers can perform all the same functions of a traditional physical server,delivering processing power, storage and applications.

Cloud servers can be located anywhere in the world and deliver services remotely through a cloud computing environment. In contrast, traditional dedicated server hardware is typically set up on premises for exclusive use by one organization.

A dedicated server is a part of a traditional server. The conventional server was often used when the concept of a cloud server was not there. In a conventional server, the customer can buy a shared or dedicated space on the server to host his or her website.

In a dedicated server, the customer can buy the complete server for himself, where he or she does not need to share the server space and resources with other customers.Many big firms and enterprises use dedicated servers because they can give a high level of security. This option is not suitable for small firms because it requires experts’knowledge and senior resources to manage and maintain a dedicated server.

Before going into in-depth analysis, 1Byte recommends that you should read and understand the concept between Cloud Server and Dedicated Server. Once you get them all. Here is the Head-to-head comparison between Dedicated and Cloud Server:

	Dedicated Server	Cloud Server
Cost Factor	In the dedicated server, we have to pay for a specific range. Here we require expert knowledge and high-level resources to manage our server, which is very expensive, and the small firms can not afford to have a dedicated server.If you use a dedicated server for that you require a team specially to handle and manage the server.	This is the most cost-efficient service; here, you only pay for space and resources which you are using. All the expert knowledge of server working is handled by the provider itself. You do not require any special to manage the server.
Management	In the dedicated server, the owner has full control over the server and it can manage the server according to its need. Though for the maintenance and management of the dedicated server we need the complete knowledge of the server itself, here we have the full control of the server.	The cloud server is managed; the server provides the customer with no control over the Server. Managing a cloud server is way harder than managing a Dedicated server, unlike the single dedicated server, in the cloud server, we deal with hundreds of virtual servers.
Reliable	In a dedicated server, we deal with a single server, so if there is some failure in the system, it can collapse the complete server and data too, which can bring down the server.	In the cloud, multiple servers hold your webpage instances, so even if a server collapses or gets down, the instance of your web page is handled by another server. These multiple servers make cloud computing more reliable.
Security	The main reason for using the dedicated server is security, to attack a dedicated server could be a tough call for a hacker because it’s very hard to breach the security of this server.	Cloud server also provides security, but a head-to-head comparison with the dedicated server, its loss. It does not mean that anyone can attack the cloud server, cloud servers are highly secure too but not that much as dedicated.
Customization	As in a dedicated server, the customer has full control over his server, so here he or she can customize the server according to the need	Cloud does not provide that much control to its customer, so a cloud user can not customize the server.
Integration of Tools	In a dedicated server, if you want to integrate the server with some utility-based tools, you may have to pay more as compared to the cloud server.	Cloud provided you with multiple utilities within less cost.
Scalability	We cannot change the configuration in a dedicated server because we have dedicated hardware in use.	Cloud servers are highly scalable, according to your need, you can change anything such as resources and space.

Conclusion
Both cloud and dedicated servers have their features. If your business is small or medium, you should choose a cloud server to host your website or web-app. Cloud provides you with high scalability, flexibility, and security. Unlike a dedicated server in the cloud, you do not have to pay extra. Even the big firms are moving their online business to cloud computing, because of its extraordinary features.

You get scalability with cloud servers. It is very easy and quick to upgrade by adding memory and disk space, as well as being more affordable.

A cloud server gives the business user stability and security because any software problems are isolated from your environment. Other cloud servers won’t impact your cloud server and vice versa. If another user overloads their cloud server, this will have no impact on your cloud server, unlike with physical servers.

Cloud servers are stable, fast and secure. They avoid the hardware issues seen with physical servers, and they are likely to be the most stable option for businesses wanting to keep their IT budget down.

Cloud servers provide a faster service for your money. You’ll get more resources and a faster service than you would for a similar price of a physical server. A cloud-hosted website will run faster.
