Cloud hosting offers hosting services to website through a virtual server, the virtual server pulls together computing resources from physical web server extensive underlying networks. Cloud computing is more of a service than a product which compares it to gas and electricity because it follows a utility computing model. Simply stated a cloud computing user can tap into the service and pays for only what he or she uses. Cloud hosting is considered as an alternative to single servers hosting website. It is an extension of clustered hosting concept where multiple servers host website. In simpler terms cloud hosting is a flexible way that describe a server configuring method and allows reliable, scalable and affordable web infrastructure.

Reasons why small business owner should consider using cloud hosting in their business operations:

Simple

Launching a cloud server takes less than one minute which saves time to focus on other things such as content delivering. The cloud server have an interface that is intuitive to the user thus making it easy for the user to easily secure his data and control the server.

Affordability

A user is only changed for the resources he or she uses. The sever changes the hosting cost depending on the time spent on it by the user. This trait makes it more affordable to user.

Scalable

Scaling a cloud server can be done with a incredible speed. Thus it is easy to reduce or expand the server in a matter of seconds this ensures that the server stays with the demand without wasting time or money on resources that are of less value. No complicated architecture is needed to upgrade the server.

Reliable

Compared to shared hosting cloud hosting is more reliable, this is because it isolates the server making it unlikely for an issue to spill from one account into other sites. Thus, stress on one server does affect the performance of others.

Customizable

Here one can easily customize his server which means a business owner can easily specify operating system, location and the server processing power. Moreover, the user can configure the serve in manner that it is able to present his content in the best way possible.

Secure

This means that it keeps the user content safe. Cloud hosting distributes data to redundant servers thus making sure that the information held is safeguarded against hardware failure. The server has automated snapshots and backups for this job. Thus, a small business owner knows that his business data is safe.

Why Small business should choose cloud computing for their

In a study conducted in the year 2012 result indicated that most small business in the United States had started migrating to cloud hosting. Why? It is also expected that the number will grow tremendously in years to come.

Reduction of cost

Every business operator aims at maximizing profit while minimizing cost as much as possible. Cloud computing help small business to save on time and money by minimizing the IT required physical storage by facilitating a mass-scale computing power.

Accessibility

A user has the freedom of accessing his or her files using any device at any place. Thus, a business owner can easily access his crucial document at any place without having to go back to his office.

Ease collaboration

This is important because the business owner can regulate who access his or her business since being the administrator gives him or her sole responsibility of granting permission for user to access them.

Reduces risk

Small business information is protected from cyber security issues such as hacker and viruses. Clouds increases security by backing-up user’s data offsite.

Improve efficiency

After moving to cloud the stress of worrying about software updates, space requirement and power ceases. Cloud hosting provides for IT infrastructure to evolve faster and keep up with the business expansion.

Benefit of cloud computing for small business

Cloud Computing

A small business owner who has no idea of what cloud computing is may have a hard time accepting cloud computing. But after going through the detailed benefit I have laid down below am sure the reader will be left convinced that cloud computing is the best for the small businesses. In the past computer user had only of accessing and using their information on the computer that is running it on a physical computer through software downloaded to it. Nevertheless, with cloud computing the computing service are based on the internet. The benefits include improves cash flow and increased efficiency.

Flexibility makes cloud computing also a favorite for business owner since it is able to meet they demand. Using cloud computing means that the business no longer needs a disaster recovery plan, this because cloud computing is able to provide solutions to issues faster taking a quarter of the time spent by other business that are non cloud.

The automatic software updates saves the business time and resources that would have been spent doing it. The security update is done by the service providers as well as maintaining the server.

No capital expenditure needed with cloud computing since it is typically pay as you use thus only a minimum start up cost is needed. Document control whereby the employees can chat as they work on a single document is another advantage of cloud computing. This process makes collaboration stronger thus improving on efficiency.

Another advantage is data security no matter what happens to the machine the data can still be used as it saved on the server. Other benefits include the fact that it increases competitive advantages for the business and it is environmental friendly in that there a decrease in carbon footprint.
