What is Cloud Hosting?
Complete beginner-friendly guide to understanding cloud hosting.
Cloud hosting distributes your website across multiple connected servers instead of relying on a single server. This provides unlimited scalability, high availability, and automatic redundancy.
How Cloud Hosting Works
Unlike traditional hosting where your website lives on one server, cloud hosting uses a network of servers working together:
- Multiple Servers: Your data is distributed across many servers
- Load Balancing: Traffic is distributed evenly
- Auto-Scaling: Resources increase/decrease automatically
- Redundancy: If one server fails, others take over
