Start » Cloud server vs own server

Since the appearance of cloud servers, more and more companies have doubts when choosing between the typical physical server or cloud server. In some cases, businesses start by storing their documents on multiple computers and, when they run out of space, store it on physical servers. However, there always comes a time when having a server room and all the inconvenience it can cause makes one consider moving to cloud servers.

Are you undecided? We help you make a decision!

What is a server?

The server is a computer equipment that provides information (images, videos, text files, applications, your web page...) to some clients, which can be people or other equipment connected to it. There are two types of servers:

  • Physical server: This server is “physically” in hardware, often in specific rooms of the companies.
  • cloud server: With this server, all the information stored is in the cloud, in a virtual infrastructure.

Cloud server vs physical server

 

cloud server

  • Lower prices, without physical space and plans based on needs and monthly payment.
  • Constant technological update.
  • High scalability, with easy and fast contracting of new services.
  • Easy access, from anywhere and at any time.

cloud server

  • Higher costs, need for a physical space, refrigeration system, devices… Large initial refunds.
  • Possible obsolescence of tools and devices.
  • Contracting new services takes longer, requires new devices and migration costs.
  • Limited access to the device and additional cost for remote access.

1. Costs

One of the most important aspects when choosing one of the two options is the costs. On the one hand, the prices of a local server they tend to be tall, since you have to acquire licenses and services for its operation, and they require a infrastructure Y maintenance constant. In addition, the costs of other devices such as routers, cooling systems, security and extinction must also be added.

Instead, the cloud servers are cheaper Since it is not necessary to have a physical space, you can choose plan that best suits our needs and the supplier from service takes care of its maintenance. Also, with vendors like Google CloudPlatform you can save even more by contracting only the service that is needed.

 

Do you want to reduce a 35% in costs for unused cloud services?

Get it with GCP and its microservices!

 

2. Technological upgrade

Technology is changing by leaps and bounds, this is indisputable. One of the decisive aspects when choosing a server may be its technological update.

On the one hand, physical servers they are made up of hardware and software that is installed in the process of their implementation. This can cause, after a while, to remain obsolete. Instead, cloud servers can be constantly updated without investing more efforts in it.

 

3. Scalability

If your company is growing and you need your resources to adapt to each phase of your company, it is best that you hire a cloud server. For example, with Google CloudPlatform increase or decrease the resources you have no need for long waits  and of very easy way. Remember that if you have a physical server, you may have to buy new devices or invest in migrations.

 

4. Accessibility

Accessing the information you have stored can become a problem if you have a local server. In this case, your access is usually limited, as it is in a fitness room. In the case of wanting to access remotely, there may be a high security risk.

Instead, with the cloud server it is easy to access your information since it is not stored on a single device. This means being able to access any moment and from any place.
