So, you have heard from us that we will be discontinuing our Shared Hosting service to make way for better, secure, reliable hosting services. You’d think, what will happen to your website or email?
Relax. Take a deep breath.
In this page, you will find information that’ll help you decide whether you should upgrade to IP ServerOne’s cloud hosting service: NovaCloud, or terminate and migrate out to another service provider.
What is Cloud Hosting?
Cloud hosting is a way to store a website or application on many different computers that work together. This makes it more reliable, flexible, and scalable. It’s like having different staff from different departments work together to ensure your website or app is always available and works smoothly. Instead of relying on just one computer, you can use the power of many different computers to store and access your website or app. Think of it like renting a portion of a big, interconnected network of computers instead of relying on a single computer to host your website. It’s reliable, scalable, and flexible!
You can now experience cloud hosting at IP ServerOne through our service called NovaCloud.
Shared Hosting vs. Cloud Hosting: A Simple Analogy
| Shared Hosting | Cloud Hosting: NovaCloud |
|---|---|
 |  |
| A user in a shared hosting environment is like living in an apartment building where you share the building’s access and facilities like the elevator, gym, pool, terrace, and so on with many other tenants. | A user in a cloud hosting environment is like owning your own house, where you have access to the entire property and the flexibility to customize as you need. You can implement various security measures, such as installing multiple doors or locks, and adding or removing rooms at any point in time. |
| Just like the apartment analogy, a user in a shared hosting environment is sharing the resources of a single physical server, such as the CPU, RAM, and storage, with many other users. | Just like the house analogy, a user in a cloud hosting environment will have the entire resource pool to themselves. This greatly increases your website’s security and performance. |
| This makes shared hosting a far more affordable option, but it also means that your website’s security or performance will be impacted. | This may make cloud hosting slightly more expensive compared to shared hosting, but it is important to note that switching to cloud hosting means we are not compromising our service standards, especially on our data security and business continuity. |
A Summary of Difference: Shared Hosting vs. Cloud Hosting [NovaCloud]
| Differences | Shared Hosting | NovaCloud Hosting |
|---|---|---|
| Computing Resources E.g.: CPU, RAM, Storage, Bandwidth, IP Address | Shared | Dedicated |
| Scalability & Agility Having the ability to add new rooms or remove them as needed. Upgrade or downgrade your server at any time to accommodate website/email fluctuate traffic or usage. | No | Yes |
| Automated Backup Making sure your website/email is protected from ransomware attacks or disasters or human error. | No | Yes |
| Security Reduce the risk of service disruption due to ransomware attacks or any technical glitch. | Low | High |
| IP Address An IP Address is equivalent to a house address. Thus, a shared IP address can be hacked easily and is unsafe. | No | Yes |
| Server Access Server is equivalent to a house. One would prefer to have entire access to your own house for security and peace of mind. | No Access | Full Access & Control |
| Customization or Integration Businesses have the need to follow the trend as technology advances. It is important that your server can accommodate to new tech changes. | No | Yes |
Should You Switch to NovaCloud Hosting?
Back to the analogy of apartment vs. owned house, shared hosting is comparable to multiple tenants living in the same building and utilizing the same resources. As a result, there is a high chance of encountering these incidents:
Ransomware Attack
Blacklisted IP Address
Spam Email
Full mailbox, cannot send email
Cannot move your business for digitalization
Thus, if you emphasize data security and peace of mind, we will encourage you to consider switching to NovaCloud hosting.
