Frequently Asked Questions

What is Cloud Hosting?
Cloud hosting is the latest form of hosting that has become extremely popular over the past few years. The main concept of cloud hosting is 'Divide and Rule' – the resources required for maintaining your website are spread across a cluster of servers that work together, termed as 'the cloud'. This greatly reduces chances of any downtimes in case of a server malfunction.

What is the difference between Cloud Hosting and Shared Hosting?
When a website is hosted on shared hosting, the website is placed on the same server as many other sites, ranging from a few to hundreds. Typically in this setup, all domains share resources, such as RAM and CPU from the same server. Cloud hosting, on the other hand, offers nearly unlimited ability to handle high traffic spikes. On Cloud, your website is hosted not only on one but on several servers connected to work as one. Your websites don’t depend on only one Server– even if one server is inaccessible, the Data is retrieved and processed by the other available servers with no downtime.

How Reliable is your Cloud Hosting?
Our cloud hosting offers high reliability. Cloud Sites automatically distributes three mirrored copies of your data across multiple devices to ensure safety and protection. The website is hosted on a virtual partition which draws its resources, such as disk space, from an extensive network of underlying physical servers.

What is the storage architecture used by your Cloud Hosting?
We use Ceph Storage, which gives 3N level of redundancy. In computing, Ceph is completely distributed without a single point of failure, scalable to the exabyte level, and freely available. Ceph replicates data and makes it fault-tolerant, requiring no specific hardware support. As a result of its design, the system is both self-healing and self-managing, aiming to minimize administration time and other costs.
