What are the main advantages of cloud hosting over VPS?

Higher stability, more cost-effective, now VPS** is generally more expensive, cloud hosts can configure their own size, more flexible operation.

1.At present, the management of the Internet by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of China is limited to the compulsory control of domestic ISP access providers, and foreign ISPs (including Hong Kong) are not managed by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, so they can be used without filing, while domestic hosts can only be used after filing, which can save you a lot of trouble.

2.Cost-effective, the development of foreign VPS hosts started earlier, the technology is relatively mature, the configuration is high, and the best is very affordable and cost-effective.

3.Good stability, mature and standardized foreign VPS host market, first-class network technology, computer room has relatively strict requirements and standards, and there are professionals to maintain, therefore, foreign VPS hosts, especially well-known brand hosts, have a great guarantee in terms of stability.

4.It solves the problem of slow mutual access speed of telecommunications and Netcom, the domestic space is divided into telecommunications and Netcom, if the selected space is telecom, then the user access speed of Netcom will be limited, if it is Netcom, then the telecom user will be restricted, and the foreign VPS host does not have such a problem, and users of different lines can easily access.

Cloud VPS, cloud hosts, and cloud computing servers are different types of services in the field of cloud computing, and there are the following differences between them:

Virtual Private Server (VPS)

Concept: Virtualize a physical server into multiple independent virtual server instances.

Features: Each VPS instance has its own operating system, resources, and isolated environment, similar to an independent server.

Purpose: Suitable for individuals and small businesses, providing a relatively low-cost independent server environment.

Cloud Hosting

Concept: Based on cloud computing technology, virtual server instances are deployed on multiple physical servers and connected through a network.

Features: Wax cloud hosting usually has high availability, elastic scalability and failover functions to provide more stable and reliable services.

Purpose: For small and medium-sized businesses that need a flexible, reliable, and high-performance server environment.

Cloud computing server

Concept: A physical server resource that provides cloud services as part of a cloud computing infrastructure.

Features: Cloud computing servers are a key component of building a cloud computing platform, with the characteristics of high performance, high scalability and high reliability.

Purpose: Used to build a cloud computing platform to support large-scale data processing, application deployment, and resource management.

Summary: Cloud VPS is the virtualization of a physical server into multiple independent virtual server instances, which is suitable for personal calendars and small businesses; Cloud virtual machines are based on cloud computing technology, which deploys virtual server instances on multiple physical servers with high availability and elastic scalability; A cloud computing server is a physical server resource that builds a cloud computing platform to support large-scale data processing and application deployment. Each service has different characteristics and uses, so choose the right cloud computing service according to your needs.

1. Cloud server, also known as cloud computing server or cloud host, is a host product in the cloud computing service system. A cloud server is a virtualization technology similar to a VPS server.

2. VPS is a real host virtualized into multiple small hosts, and the performance is often not guaranteed, while the cloud server is a huge number of server arrays, and many virtual hosts are born after balancing the load, which has a basic guarantee for both data security and performance.

3. Cloud servers are similar to VPS, except that cloud servers are based on a server cluster, which divides computing and storage resources, while VPS is based on a server for resource division, and cloud servers are better in terms of data security, scalability and stability.

4. Cloud host is said to be a group of solutions based on virtualization technology composed of n multiple servers. The concept of cloud computing servers is different, including elastic computing solutions, which mainly rely on the elasticity of digging into the positive cloud technology.

5. The host is different, the characteristics are different, and the principle is different. VPS hosts are virtualized from a real host to multiple small hosts, and the performance is often not guaranteed.

VPS: Utilizes virtual server software to create multiple small, isolated servers on a single physical server. These small servers (VPS) have their own operating system, which runs and manages exactly the same as a standalone server.

VPS ensures that all resources are exclusive to users, so that users can enjoy the service quality of independent hosts with the best of virtual hosts.

Elastic server (ECS): A group of cluster hosts is used to create multiple similar independent hosts, and each host can operate independently. It is a virtualization technology similar to VPS host, VPS is the use of virtual software, VZ or VM on a host to virtualize a number of parts similar to independent hosts, each part can be a separate operating system, the management method is the same as the host.

The cloud host is a part of a group of cluster hosts that virtualize a plurality of independent hosts, and each host in the cluster has an image of the virtual host, which greatly improves the security and stability of the virtual host, unless all the hosts in the cluster have problems, the cloud host will be inaccessible.

Advantages: safe, high stability, cheap, low cost, easy to manage.

Speaking of cloud hosts and VPS, these can be said to be big-name and well-known hosts shown in the picture below, and they are doing very well in all aspects

1. ** and deployment time.

VPS is instantaneous and requires no OS installation.

The cloud host is also instantaneous, can be completed in a few minutes, can be deployed with one click, or can be installed independently.

2. Safety and reliability.

Poor VPS security: Program defects, ARP spoofing, viruses, and resource crowding installed on other VPs on the same physical server will seriously affect the company. There is basically no ARP, Trojan horse, or DDoS protection capability.

High VM security: Built-in ARP protection to improve DDoS attack prevention capabilities on a large scale; Share the performance and reliability of branded enterprise-class servers and hardware virtualization, built-in HA; Provides a variety of rapid recovery measures, such as standby machines, snapshots, and data backups.

3. Performance and guarantee.

Poor VPS performance and guarantee: The performance is average, and it is only suitable for small-scale concurrent access. Performance is not guaranteed, and it is susceptible to other VPS on the same physical server.

The performance and guarantee of the cloud host are good and guaranteed; Same as a physical server.

4. Elasticity and scalability.

VPS capacity expansion is fast, which is limited by the configuration of a single server.

The cloud host is instantaneous** and expands on demand, without paying for the original leased resources.

5. Cost of ownership.

VPS with low VPS configuration is the lowest**, but low security reliability and unguaranteed performance lead to unguaranteed service quality and uncontrollable operating costs.

The lowest comprehensive cost of cloud hosts: no deposit for monthly payment, pay-as-you-go use, basic zero maintenance, and the cost advantages brought by scale, green energy saving, and best IT practices can also be shared.

6. Easy to use and easy to manage.

VPS provides a single stand-alone management interface, no root or super administrator operating system permissions, and management flexibility is subject to the management interface.

The cloud virtual machine has built-in KVM, and customers can centrally and uniformly manage the cloud virtual machines distributed in various places through the self-service system; Full access to the root or super administrator operating system. For more information, please refer to Alibaba Cloud.

The differences between cloud servers and VPS are mainly reflected in the following aspects:

First, the cost performance:

If a server is divided into 5 VPS, the memory and CPU supporting virtual machines account for about 35% of the parent server. The remaining resources are allocated to 5 virtual machines, which is more resource-intensive and has a great impact on performance.

Cloud servers are hardware isolated, and the more servers that make up cloud computing, the less resources are consumed, and these are hardware isolations. In addition, VPS and cloud servers are also very different in cost.

2. Security:

If there is a problem with the parent server, it means that all the virtual hosts in it also have problems, which is a loss for both. However, if there is a problem with one server in the cluster of the cloud server, there will be no interruption to the image file.

3. Anti-attack:

Generally speaking, cloud servers are more resistant to attacks than VPS. At present, many cloud host service providers, such as Western Digital, also provide DDOS Premium, in the case of cloud hosts and VPS suffering from a large traffic DDoS CC attack, users can configure DDOS Advanced to clean and filter malicious attack traffic to ensure the stability and reliability of the host.

1. VPS is a fixed configuration, generally some common configurations are provided by the host manufacturer, and customers can choose;

2. Kuaiyun server is an elastic resource allocation, and customers can supplement and adjust resources at any time according to their own needs;

3. The architecture used by the two is different;

A cloud server is a server that is shared remotely. VPS is a relatively independent virtual server.

There are some fundamental differences between functions and roles.

If you need to work in the office, it is recommended to use Sesame VPS. Relatively independent and does not affect each other, and things are not easy to lose.
