Dedicated hosting vs Cloud hosting: how to choose?

Assisting you in selecting the best service for the best price is the primary goal of the Solar Communications team. Quite often, while discussing the details of an application, our clients ask for help in deciding what type of hosting service to order. These questions are the reason for creating this article.

Let’s define the basic concepts of Dedicated & Cloud Hosting.

DEDICATED SERVER HOSTING
Look, everything is simple — the benefits of dedicated servers are: data control, DDoS protection, and performance. Dedicated servers may be the best option for any size company.No matter if you need to manage a busy website, store and process large volumes of data, or handle mission-critical applications — we recommend you to choose this hosting type.
Dedicated servers may be used to run much like a real cloud environment with the help of a few Solar Communications products.

CLOUD HOSTING
Without a doubt, one of the best hosting options available today is cloud hosting, which runs virtual machines on a foundational network of physically linked computers.All of the users and sites supported by these VMs can share the same actual hardware resources. As a result, cloud hosting plans may provide customers with a wide range of services at a lesser price than traditional VPS hosting plans, including high availability and scalability.
You may easily access the resources of the remote server from the internet thanks to a cloud hosting option. Because resources are shared among a cluster of workstations and duplicated across all servers, a cloud hosting solution offers a high level of stability. If one machine malfunctions and breaks down, the functioning of the entire website and any other websites housed in that cluster won’t be affected if one computer has a problem or fails.

THE BEST FOR YOU
Scale is where these environments diverge the most. Dedicated server can be a great starting point if you want to launch as soon as possible and don’t care about scale. Also, it is an excellent option for a dynamic, growing startup that values and expects the constancy of a dependable server because it is sturdy and does give increased performance.

However, a cloud hosting environment is worth considering if you want a flexible hosting arrangement, a high degree of site speed, and ample storage. You may have access to a virtually limitless number of server resources when using cloud hosting. Cloud hosting may be the ideal choice for websites with fluctuating traffic volumes or those that are rapidly growing. You may use the greatest server power and most flexible pricing models available with cloud hosting.
