How are cloud servers different from shared hosting and VPS offerings? International hosting company, Voxel is organising #cloudchat, an event happening this 6th May, to shed some light on the subject. Voxel’s VP of development, Michael Venzke, will be discussing basic cloud fundamentals and benefits over VPS; and will also delve deeper into more technical discussion points, such as cloud interoperability and automatic development/QA environments. Dr. Kris Beevers, Voxel’s Principle Software Architect, will also be discussing proper CDN implementation and performance optimization in cloud deployments.
Interesting fact that Voxel provided:
While it’s true that cloud-based hosting is gaining significant ground in the U.S., adoption is relatively slow in most of Asia. According to William Fellows, from The 451 Group, 93% of spending on infrastructure as a service is done by the U.S., 6% by Europe and just 1% by Asia.
