1. What is a Cloud server?

Cloud Server, or cloud computing, is a computing model based on the use of computer technology through connections to the internet. Cloud server functions as a bridge to share data between server devices over the internet. The cloud server model was developed to address issues related to uptime, warranty, and cost for many businesses. This model is particularly suitable for those who rely on the internet to develop their business. In summary, the best server solution today is Cloud Server.

2. Features of Cloud server

• Security: Comprehensive data security in and out of the system, combined with protecting data transit time when communicating with external parties. Additionally, cloud servers use the latest multi-layered security systems.
• Data backup: The cloud server system is stored and “backed up” every week in the form of a “snapshot” to ensure the highest level of data security.
• Efficient remote access: All servers provide remote access services.
• User-friendly management interface: The interface is developed based on the web 2.0 platform with many convenient features.
• Easy upgrades: To add resources, users only need to increase the limit on the server. Alternatively, they can create a new virtual server to support their business.
• High availability: The cloud has an automatic mechanism to monitor the status of servers. If one virtual server encounters an issue, clients will be automatically switched to another server.

3. Advantages and disadvantages of Cloud server

The only disadvantage is the issue of information security. Compared to dedicated servers, cloud servers have lower security. However, compared to VPS, Cloud servers are still much safer.

However, it also has many advantages such as:

• Unlimited storage: Cloud servers are developed based on cloud computing. Because of this, the storage capacity is unlimited and the data stored on the cloud server is quite stable.
• Cloud server is like VPS, a virtual server that allows different websites to access. This creates a difference from a regular dedicated server.

4. What are the parameters to consider when renting a Cloud server? 

4.1. CPU (Central Processing Unit)

CPU is the first important parameter to consider when renting a cloud server. When it comes to CPU, people will think of Hz, cache memory or the number of cores and threads. These parameters help the Cloud server run stably and quickly. Depending on your actual needs, you need to choose the number of cores that are suitable.

4.2. RAM (Random Access Memory)

The more RAM, the better because most types of RAM are the same, but if RAM 4 is still faster than RAM 3. And real RAM is still faster than virtual RAM. The more RAM, the higher the ability of the virtual server to run multiple tasks at the same time. Customers need to consider how many applications and how much RAM the applications running on the VM require to determine the exact number.

4.3. Storage

Cloud Storage system plays an important role in Cloud servers because it affects the processing speed of the server. When it comes to Storage, you need to pay attention to two factors: capacity and Storage type. Customers choose the appropriate Storage capacity based on their actual needs to ensure that the virtual server operates well.

There are two types of Storage: HDD and SSD. HDD is for regular customers, while SSD is for customers with high read/write requirements, which requires fast speed. If the Cloud system is equipped with all SSDs, the performance will be three to four times faster than HDDs. In the Cloud Storage system, you can also choose from three different Cloud Storage partitions:

• Hot Storage with up to 50,000 IOPS to meet the fast task processing requirements of databases
• Warm Storage with 20,000 IOPS is suitable for applications
• On a Cloud server, you can use both types of Cloud Storage.

4.4. Uptime

Ensuring the level of service operation and stability during use. Uptime depends on three factors:

• Uptime of the physical system
• Uptime of solutions
• Uptime of the Data Center. In reality, the ideal uptime based on all three factors is around 99.95%, as 99.99% as you often see is ignoring the uptime of the Data Center.

4.5. Technical support

Any system, machine, or device can encounter errors during operation. Especially with Cloud servers, you always need quick support when encountering problems. You need to pay attention to the customer support capabilities of the provider. The requirement for a Cloud server rental unit is to have a highly specialized customer support team that advises accurately, promptly, and with enthusiasm on issues that users encounter.
