What is the difference between a cloud server and a server?

Cloud server is a flexible computing service. Its management mode is simpler than the physical server. Users can create or publish any number of cloud servers without purchasing hardware in advance.

Bird Cloud focuses on providing one-stop core network cloud deployment services for individual developer users, small and medium-sized and large enterprise users, allowing users to simplify cloud deployment and use cloud computing easily and quickly. Bird Cloud is one of the few professional cloud computing service providers with dual qualifications of ISP/IDC in China. At the same time, he holds the system software copyright certificate and CNNIC address distribution alliance member certificate, and has passed the international certification of ISO2700 1 information security management system and ISO900 1 quality assurance system.

Traditional servers have independent CPU, memory stick and hard disk, so the security of stored data is not high, and the scrap rate of hard disk is high, so the application is limited. If there is a new application, you can only buy another one, which causes a serious waste of servers, which can not be underestimated for some small and medium-sized enterprises.

1, technical aspects.

Cloud server adopts cloud computing technology, which integrates various software and hardware technologies such as computing, network and storage. Traditional servers are independent and will not integrate these resources.

2. In terms of security.

The cloud server has natural protection against ARP attacks and MAC spoofing, snapshot backup, and data is never lost. Traditional servers do not have this function.

3. Reliability.

Cloud server is based on server cluster, with high hardware redundancy and low failure rate. Traditional servers have relatively little hardware redundancy and high failure rate.

4. In terms of flexibility.

Users can add their own configuration online in real time, which has a large expansion space; Traditional servers have limitations in this respect. If there is a new application, you can only buy another one.
