New to the cloud?

A lot of companies start with small virtual servers or even a physical server in the office. The problem is that it's quick to outgrow them and if something goes wrong, your app is down.

Moving to the cloud allows up to scale and gives you resilience. If a server goes down, no problem, there will be a new one before you realise.

Cost of the cloud vs Virtual Hosting

Will the cloud cost more than a virtual server? Yes, probably.

Virtual servers are cheap because you're sharing with other companies. It means that your application can only be as fast the server can handle, which depends on how busy the other apps are. A broken app can even take down the rest of the server

Your app can also only be as secure as the server, if it hasn't be patched or is misconfigured your app and data are at risk.

Moving to the cloud will cost a bit more but you can scale your app, be confident in your own security and scalability.
