cloud hosting vs. traditional hosting

[Gelato]

Garrett, I'm not sure what you mean by saying it's the best advantage when it comes to avoiding investment risk.

Joseph-- do you think it's ever possible to really know that a hosting provider is 100% reliable? How many mirrored servers are usually common in this case?

Yes, it is possible to know whether the hosting provider is reliable. For this purpose, the best option is to check the kind of support the hosting provider offers. 24x7 quality support is always recommended. You can check the time for which the hosting provider is offering web hosting services and some of the reviews may also help, however, it is recommended that you do not take your decision on the basis of reviews only ;)

Generally, 2 dedicated servers are included in the server mirroring solution, however, the number may change as per requirements

Hope this helps..

It is because, cloud hosting customers never need to worry about buying new hardware or software. The need to pay only for whatever they use.

Joseph, it does help! Thank you so much. Somehow I missed your response earlier. I don't ever go just on reviews.

Garrett--- thanks for the clarification.
