    With the Cloud server you will be able to modify the server resources anytime you want this.If your server for example is overloaded and you want to add more memory ,cpu or disk space, you can just push one button and add additional resources for your server.You can also decrease the number of server resources in the same way if you see for example, that your server doesn't need 2 GB of Ram and 2 Cpu, but is working without any problems with one CPU and 1 Gb of RAM.

    This is the main advantage of the Cloud technology.

    Vertical scalability
    You can independently increase the virtual server resources within one hypervisor.
    Don’t be afraid of the instant users inrush or server load increase which can be created by the scripts. Just enter your client control panel and choose the necessary (for the moment) number of resources using the cursor.

    After making the changes, your server will get rebooted and will start working with the new parameters. You can change the Cloud server resources even several times per day, moreover, you will always pay only for the resources which you are going to use.

    Fail-safe feature

    Please mind that in Cloud your server is located on several servers at the same time , so, the failure of one of these servers won’t influence your resource performance.

    These are the main thing which should be included by a Cloud server.

    Cloud hosting competition is fierce. But, overall you should follow the same principles you would when you sign up for any type of hosting. Choose a hosting provider that is a well known ad respected brand, look for a good value over simply "cheap" hosting and make sure that their support services are 24/7/365. Scalability is one of the cooler features of Cloud hosting as well so explore your options along those lines as well.

    Server uptime guarantee. The best hosting providers offer extremely high uptime guarantees. Do not settle for anything less than 99.95%.
    Price. There are three main types of VPS hosting: unmanaged hosting, managed hosting and unmetered hosting. In terms of affordability, metered and unmetered hosting are the most affordable. Also, keep your eye out for a money-back guarantee.
    Security. A secure VPS environment should be a top priority and most certainly should be addressed with potential service providers. Proper security checks should be incorporated in order to ensure secure transactions, and the availability of Secured Socket Layer (SSL) certificates should be present. Additionally, check to see if your hosting provider offers 24/7 monitoring of your VPS account.
    Customer/Technical support. You need to know that you will be able to access customer support to receive technical troubleshooting, even at three in the morning. See what mediums support is offered through: email, phone, chat, etc.

    Cloud is becoming a new standard. From a provider standpoint DigitalOcean (digitalocean.com) is making waves.
