SmugMug Cloud Hosting

Thursday, August 12th, 2010

SmugMug was started around 6 years ago, it still refers to itself as “the ultimate in photosharing” since it offers unlimited storage and stores backup copies of each photo in multiple datacenters. With more than 315,000 paying customers already, and 288,000,000 photos, it makes them a giant in the photo sharing industry.

Photo cloud hosting isn’t a market that most companies tap into these days. SmugMug is a QED of cloud computing, no one really knows if it’s going to work for them.  I think it’s working great for them.  Their photo cloud servers can store several thousand photos on a server and realistically never be called on again.  The only cost that they have is the photo cloud storage costs.  There is virtually no bandwidth costs.
