Choosing The Right Cloud Server

Cloud Computing benefits are many both for individuals and businesses looking for

a flexible and cost-effective technology to reduce their operational and capital expenses. Though Cloud Computing is diversified in its approach and reach, businesses are the key entities that can reap out tremendous benefits from the cloud, in not only reducing their IT Infrastructure cost to over 60% but also in providing a flexible and scalable architecture, accommodating the changing dynamics of global businesses in alignment with their business strategy.

With the rising demand for cloud hosted solutions, cloud computing vendors have mushroomed up with their portfolio of cloud offering, making it somewhat difficult for consumers in selecting the right partner for their cloud deployment.

Below are the key considerations in gauging and selecting the right cloud hosted servers;

Security & Fault Tolerance: One of the most important factors in any IT solution is its ability to secure the hosted applications/facilities from malicious hackers, crackers and even insiders. An ideal Cloud Hosted Server facility should be SAS Type II certified with sufficient and un-interrupted backup electrical power. The facility should also provide fault tolerance and failover capacity by incorporating RAID 10 on storage drives.

On-Demand Scalability: Among the core benefits of Cloud Hosted Servers is the ability to scale computing power, whenever required. An ideal cloud provider should enable its clients to increase their back-end server computing capacity manually, automatically in traffic spikes and without zero downtime within the transformation.

Disaster Recovery: Though mostly a top notch provider has a fault tolerant cloud infrastructure, recovery of virtual machine images/snapshots must be a necessary component of the whole solution, ensuring the end-user complete safety in case of a disaster.

Flexibility: A Cloud Hosted Server must be flexible in many ways; by providing ease of adoption, deployment and management of the hosted applications. Besides deployment, the cloud provider should also facilitate in cloud migration; ease of re-deployment on a new cloud for existing servers/solutions. Also, a cloud provider must provide well documented SLA with no long term commitment or contract.

Economical: Cloud Hosted Servers bring in more than 60% reduction on server capital and operational costs and therefore are the stand-out option in short listing a vendor. Cloud Hosted server providers must have solutions that are economical to adopt and have a low total cost of ownership, among which hourly billed cloud servers are the most economical offering in the market with their least acquisition and maintenance cost.
