What is the difference between server-based hosting and cloud hosting - CTO Tip#6 - YouTube

Launching a startup is a long journey with many difficulties but it gets easier
[4]
with a friend my CTO free hi everyone and welcome to the CTO tips as a
[14]
start-up founder you might consider to get maybe a cloud hosting or a server
[20]
based hosting for your web server of all your platform but who at is the real difference
[25]
between both of them let me explain that as usual with a
[30]
small drawing if you are about to go for a server-based posting that means that
[37]
you're gonna bring a server no matter where you go you get that server and on
[44]
the server you will have the website you will have the data of your database I
[53]
mean you will have media files here and in fact you will have almost everything
[61]
maybe a mail server on the same server which also mean that if tomorrow you go
[75]
on the TV and you have a very high traffic that
[79]
try to connect to your website your website gonna crash and that's usually
[88]
the big drawback of using classical web or test/ ask based website hosting the
[100]
server-based hosting now let's talk about what is a cloud hosting the cloud of
[106]
thing is quite the same principle but everything is separate which means that
[112]
you have a website a website okay you're gonna put it on a big data warehouse
[121]
where tens of computer servers are going to wait for your website so if at any
[130]
time there is high traffic that's totally fine because you will have here
[136]
something that's going to redirect all the requests to as much server as
[142]
required now let's talk about the database if you are on cloud-based
[149]
database usually you will be able to define what are the server size that you
[156]
want to use for your database and move from one to another very easily and have
[162]
some synchronization already up and running which means that it's very easy
[173]
for you to manage a very easy for you to scale and very easy to restore at a
[182]
point in time which is something quite complicated when you only have your own
[188]
server it means that if you have a crash or maybe someone who do something wrong
[194]
on your database you can restore your database at any point in time maybe one
[200]
hour ago two hour ago two days ago whatever so that's very interesting and
[205]
important that's in the cloud configuration now let's talk about the
[211]
mail of course for the mail it's going to be exactly the same as for the web
[216]
website you will be able to deploy your mail service on your hosting
[221]
infrastructure and for the media for the media file that's again same thing you
[230]
can replicate all your media file not only on several computer but all over
[236]
the world so that when you have some files that need to be downloaded it they
[243]
are downloaded from the closest place from your visitor and it's faster it's
[249]
again it's regarding the performance it's a lot better so in that case the
[256]
infrastructure that are well-known are s3 from AWS Amazon Web Services but that's
[262]
not the only one and I also recommend to use
[266]
and to check out a cloud the cloud
[270]
sorry cloud platform Google cloud platform IBM provides also great
[276]
services and there are Microsoft with as you that provide also good cloud
[282]
services so I hope that explanation between a simple server service that
[290]
might run and run out of power if you have a very high traffic or an
[296]
infrastructure based on cloud that the main difference is here we separate
[301]
everything to be sure that everything is reliable enough for your growth and
[307]
that's why it's relevant for you to move on AWS Amazon Goo gle IBM and run into
[314]
soforth if you want to grow your started thanks for anything in listening and
[318]
this short CTO tips as usual I'm looking for to see info for the see you inside
