There are two main hosting solutions that are available for everyone – Cloud and Dedicated Servers. It is necessary to understand the differences in between them. Below mentioned are some of the major differences -

1. Availability - Whether it is a system failure or some other issue, cloud servers never fails and ensures maximum uptime and zero downtime for the application and website.

In dedicated servers, there is a hardware failure and downtime risk as they don’t possess multiple nodes that share load.

2. Scalability - Decrease or increase of resources, such as RAM, storage, and computing cores according to the workloads is quite simple and easy with the cloud server. So, select a scalable CPU, [url]storage[/url], RAM, and strong resources that boost the website performance.

In case of dedicated server, specifications are rigid and resources’ scaling is time consuming and a quite difficult task.

3. Security - In cloud servers, you need to trust service provider for security as they ensure safety of data via dedicated IT support, firewalls, encrypted solutions, and also facilitate with backup recoveries.

However, in dedicated servers, essential measures need to be taken by you from server resources in order to upgrade dedicated server and secure your confidential information.

4. Cost-efficiency - An hourly resource billing is one of the major benefits of cloud hosting. Typically, it follows the process of paying for resources that is actually used by you. SQL storage, disk space, and band width, these are quite expensive.

In case of dedicated server, disk space, SQL storage, and band width are relatively affordable. They are billed on monthly basis and you need to pay a particular amount regardless of number of resources and servers used by you.
