    Is anybody here at DP using SiteCloud for hosting? Does anybody know of a cloud hosting provider similar to SiteCloud which will allow streaming video also to be hosted on domain? I know about Rackspace but they're must too expensive. I'm currently with HostGator but I'm looking for a cloud hosting alternative which will have the same features as HostGator's VPS (Level 3) and managed WHS cpanel. Thanks for your help and suggestions in advance.

    I apologize for what I'll say, but "Cloud Hosting" (Cloud Computing) is a concept of providing high-performance computing resources to website owners and those resources ARE NOT be unlimited. I can not say anything about this particular web host, because it would not be fair. However "Unlimited" is exactly the opposite of Cloud computing.

    I didn't mention anything about unlimited. Of course Cloud Hosting is limited in some way depending upon what the host company provides. I'm looking for a Cloud Hosting provider who has similar features to HostGator on the cloud. So I can migrate my domains over to them. Otherwise I'd just stick with HostGator until I find a better alternative for hosting my domains.

    I'm with SiteCloud. Their upside is the load balanced approach, meaning that your site won't get suspended for excessive CPU usage if you get a sudden burst of incoming traffic. My cloud business review site runs on it and the load time is fantastic.

    My other sites have been suspended several times due to receiving viral traffic from social sites by my other hosting providers.

    I believe that cloud hosting gives so many advantages in comparison with ordinary hosting solutions.
    There are many hosts out there offering cloud hosting - just do a search and choose the best one.

    Hi,

    Have you transferred already at sitecloud? Because I am soliciting some review also about this web host.

    I am also currently hosting at hostgator.
