For the past few decades, web hosting in the technological world has undergone an enormous evolution to its current state. This has given birth to cloud hosting in the last few years. Cloud hosting has enabled the industry of hosting to boom changing its strategies and focus in technology today.

This has really moved the world to greater heights. Cloud hosting has become very marketable in the world today. It has boosted the availability of the services to many people.Cloud hosting has clearly simplified the lives of many people today.

Definition of cloud hosting:

The term cloud hosting can be referred to as an on-demand service with high-level availability. The provider of cloud hosting uses many servers to form a cluster, many disks, several memories and the CPUs.The cloud hosting provider is thus able to form clouds by using a combination of the items named here.

Cloud hosting is done with a view of using the web server for around an hour. After this time, you pay for it and then you go on with your other business. With cloud hosting, you just pay for the service as you use it and then leave it after. The cloud hosting service provider helps the clients to use a curve and be in a position of paying for it themselves for the duration of time they are engaged with the cloud hosting.

The cloud hosting clients are able to use the service and disconnect as soon as they have used enough.This enables the client to determine the time he is willing to use the cloud and also when he wants to use it. Cloud hosting is a great revolution in the web industry which has marked a great sign in the history of technology.

The Google cloud hosting:

Many people have asked the question of whether the Google application is part of cloud hosting. The answer is no. Google application is part of cloud computing. The Google application is more software than cloud hosting. Many people have confused cloud hosting with cloud computing. It should be known that the two cases are very different.

Cloud computing and cloud hosting. These terms are different and cannot be used interchangeably as many people will put it. There has been a lot of confusion in the world today regarding the different views of the two applications. Cloud hosting is very different from cloud computing.

On demand – what’s the meaning?

When we talk on demand as cloud computing is concerned we mean the following:

On demand simply means having the freedom and capability of going into the control panel and instantly creating a server. The specifications and the process of achieving the goal is also indicated and shown on the server.

There is also the freedom and ability to ease the server if you don’t require or need it. When the server is not being used,it is advisable to remove or delete it as it will attract some charges if you are using it. To stop the bill just keep away and don’t dare use it for any of the processes.

The on demand term also means that there is the ability of upgrading your server to make an addition of the resources. This is a great revolution in the technology industry.

Posted on 4th November 2011 by cloudhostingguy in Cloud Hosting

These days, the OVA (Open Visualization Alliance) registers more and more members. This alliance represents a consortium that intends to foster the adoption of the open-visualization technologies, such as KVM (Kernel Virtual Machine). Obviously, the companies that join this alliance also focus on web hosting solutions and cloud computing.

The truth is that the KVM technology only exists inside the OVA. This technology ensures some unique benefits that can help any company to build different cloud deployments. For getting the best alternatives, the companies must also consider the freedom and costs, which represent some truly important criteria in choosing a virtual solution. Due to the advantages that come along with KVM, the alliance has gained popularity, which is continuously increasing the number of its participants.

About 50% of the OVA members are interested especially in cloud computing. The key attributes of cloud computing are virtualization, reliability, flexibility and efficiency. Obviously, the cloud computing services must provide their end users all these features. And a truly important thing is that by simply supporting the KVM and virtualization, most cloud computing companies are able to reduce their costs and increase the KVM density, while hardening security and improving performance.

Currently, the popularity of the OVA is growing especially in Latin America and Asia-Pacific area. The reason for this is that these areas are formed from different businesses, which can maintain a fast growing pace. Moreover, these businesses are able to scale all of their operations with small investments. The truth is that the growth of the OVA shows the interest of the individual web hosting companies in getting the new KVM technologies.

Additionally, the KVM has a truly great potential in emerging the markets, which can definitely convince the web hosting companies to join their efforts in order to achieve their common goals.

The computing trend is shifting more towards cloud hosting and the future prospects about cloud computing cannot be estimated because so many modifications are being made in this particular field but companies are shifting their functions and operations more towards this innovative computing. An estimate in emerging trends in field of cloud computing is analyzed below.

Emerging Trends In Cloud Computing

Emerging Trends In Cloud Computing

Privatization Of Cloud Server:

Companies are getting personalized in the case of cloud computing as certain obvious examples are there. IBM has initiated the concept of blue cloud and so does Microsoft has initiated the same effort of personalized servers. Private and personalized servers are a huge collection of databases containing huge amount of information.

Proficiencies in IT Skills:

With the shift in trends from dedicated hosting towards cloud hosting, the new skills and competencies will be acquired by the employees will help in developing outstanding skills in a new field.

Down-sizing of IT Departments:

IT departments of organizations will shrink hugely both in infrastructure and number of workers. With the advent of cloud computing, business firms will no longer need too many workers and resources for doing all the IT related tasks.

Provides A Much Protected Medium:

The security issues have been resolved to a greater extent with a more shielded operational medium with cloud computing. As when data is incorporated on a single server will prone it more towards insecurity and hacking medium as compared to when it will be secured on a cloud medium.

Opportunities For Small And Larger Enterprises:

Small and large organizations are vending various flexible suites of cloud computing. Many renowned companies like Microsoft and IBM have gone more operational towards cloud computing.

Microsoft’s Office 365 vs Google Docs War

0 comments

Posted on 27th June 2011 by cloudhostingguy in Cloud Hosting

, , , ,

Both Microsoft and Google are boasting about large customers they’ve won. Last week, Google said that McClatchy, which owns The Sacramento Bee and other newspapers, is switching 8,500 workers to Google Apps. Microsoft held news conferences with San Francisco and New York officials when those cities chose Microsoft reports the Seattle Times.

While word processing on the Web may seem mundane, the competition between Google and Microsoft over Web-based applications is the stuff of high drama. Google protested in federal court when a U.S. cabinet department favored Microsoft. Steve Ballmer has personally visited department officials to court its business. Google’s marketing slogan is that companies have “gone Google.” Microsoft’s retort, “Google gone.”

The competition is hot because email services on Google Apps and Office 365 are a gateway to cloud computing. Instead of getting installed on desktop PCs or corporate servers, software and data in cloud computing will be stored on servers run by a cloud company and accessed via the Internet with smartphones, tablets, laptops, PCs and televisions.

The cloud hosting world for apps is becoming a huge factor in who will be leading the global market for these types of things.  I wonder who will win.  Who do you think controls the global app market for cloud computing?  I’m talking specifically about companies that host the apps in the cloud.

Cloud server provider Hostway announced on Tuesday its plans to add 18,000 square feet to its Tampa, Florida data center. This expansion is said to be part for their FlexCloud, cloud hosting expansion.  This will be their 12th data center in the world.

This announcement comes a day after Hostway launched Registry Services Corporation, the retail version of its domain registry back-end service.

According to the press release, Hostway’s expansion will house its FlexCloud Server services and provide lower latency connectivity for users in the US Eastern regions.

Hostway says its FlexCloud servers will be supported in its Austin and Tampa data centers. The Tampa facility will offer a disaster recovery and redundancy option for clients to protect data from single location failures, according to Hostway.

The company says its customers can manage two data center locations with a single control panel.

“Our Tampa data center provides our clients with the ability to easily provision secure cloud services in multiple locations for disaster recovery and redundancy,” Todd Benjamin, vice president of enterprise hosting for Hostway said in a statement. “This expansion is a part of our goal to introduce our secure and reliable FlexCloud Servers throughout North America and to further build our global presence.”

Cloud #fail

By now you should have heard the problems people have been having with their Gmail accounts. 1000′s of E-mails have been deleted, accounts have been disabled, and while Google has been hard at work trying to make everything right.  This is one of those things that makes people like you and me weary of the cloud.  Is moving to the cloud the best idea?

The Google says that the glitch, which first popped up at the weekend, has only affected a small percentage of the Gmail userbase. Initial estimates hovered around less than 0.29 percent of all Gmail users, but that number has since been revised down to less than 0.08 percent of all Gmail users. It’s fair to say that calling the glitch “widespread” probably wouldn’t be entirely accurate.

Don’t move to the cloud unless you are ready for it!
