The difference between local servers and cloud servers


When choosing a web hosting service, as we have documented in Webirix on other occasions, it is important to know that there is no one type of hosting that accommodates all needs, starting from the economic issue.

The investment of a VPS It is recommended for projects that are somewhat more demanding than those of a one pager that I would only use WordPress or another CMS hosted on a moderate capacity server. Likewise, there are also differences between famous cloud servers and local servers.

First, let's understand what is the cloud, via Quora:

The cloud computing, to begin with, it is a metaphor for the various data centers that would generate the figure of a virtual server which does not physically exist but is available as long as you have an internet connection.

This is how what in the end is a virtual private server, allows us to have scalability and save expensive hardware maintenance. That is why several have migrated from having physical servers in their offices (such as the famous case of HuffPost or BuzzFeed during the storms of New York) to rather hire VPS or Cloud Servers.

Local servers have limited scalability, generally expensive and dedicated hardware, which also requires trained and updated specialists to provide maintenance or fix any anomalies, in addition to the fact that integration with third-party services would be limited by the same as the hardware would be static.

Even a cloud server It can be operated and maintained from any computer with internet access, as well as being able to integrate with multiple technologies thanks to the fact that the service lives in data centers that are up-to-date.
