Cloud hosting is a way of hosting websites by spreading data over several machines rather than a single server. Users manage their data by using a “virtual machine” that access the various servers in the cloud.
How are cloud servers built?
Cloud servers are created using virtualization software to divide a physical (bare metal) server into multiple virtual servers. Organizations use an infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) model to process workloads and store information. They can access virtual server functions remotely through an online interface.
