Bluehost vs. DevHost Comparison Chart

Cloud Hosting is the hosting of a website based on a "Divide and Rule" concept - the website is hosted on multiple connected servers allowing the resources required for maintaining the website to be spread across those servers, and rendered on a per need basis. With cloud hosting, your website is hosted on multiple connected servers. This architecture provides increased power, availability and reliability to handle any load size or demand, and at the same time, allows websites to grow without the normal hardware restrictions of one single physical server. The easiest way to understand this concept is to look at one of its biggest promoters: Google. You may not remember the last time Gmail was down. This is because Gmail, and other Google operations, has its resources spread over hundreds of servers on the cloud. This massive infrastructure allows people to access their Gmail accounts from all over the world at the same time without putting stress on the website.
