How to Choose the Best Cloud Hosting for Your Business

Having a high performance cloud hosting service can help increase your productivity and provide another line of defense for your data.

San diego, CA (prHWY.com) June 20, 2012 - Having a high performance cloud hosting service can help increase your productivity and provide another line of defense for your data. There are many companies out there that provide cloud hosting, but they don't all offer the same services.

Here's what to look for when you're choosing your cloud hosting providers:

Highly Scalable

If you're going to be trusting a company with your data, you want to be sure they can handle an increase in users, workload or any transactions, without strain. Looking for a cloud that will not only allow you to grow, but be able to grow with you is a must.

Open Philosphy

Being able to access your information and relocate it easily is important, espcially when time is money. By finding a cloud with an open philosphy you'll be able to have full control of your data, length of contract, and server size and provider.

Backups and Security for Hosted Data

One of the major benefits of cloud hosting as opposed to onsite servers is that you automatically get to have your business's files stored on servers located offsite. This gives an extra layer of protection for your business. However, it also adds another layer of security issues if you are storing confidential information or important trade documents. Look into each cloud hosting company's security, both for its physical servers and its defenses against hackers. In addition, consider how frequently the company backs up its files. The best cloud hosting companies will store backups in a separate location for an added layer of protection against loss.

Cost for Cloud Storage Space

Rather than just looking at the lowest price offered by each provider, consider how many gigs of cloud hosting you need and look at the price each company offers for that amount of storage. Also, consider the special features you would need when getting your quote. Although it is tempting to go with the company that offers the lowest price for the package you need, if you truly want the best cloud hosting, you will also need to consider the reputation and reliability of the company.
