Explain the situation with cloud hosting?

Question

linux

What are units? for example, I look here https://vps.ua/cloud-hosting/
Why are they indicated at intervals?
If these are processor cores - then where is their characteristic?
What is the essence of cloud hosting?
And lastly, does it have any advantages, for example, in comparison with VDS (XEN virtualization) or a dedicated server?

Answer 1

Unit - 1 core.
They do not write for one simple reason - they have different hardware in the cluster with different CPUs + even the power scheduler is threshing with might and main.
So, depending on luck and load, 1 unit is 900-3400 MHz.

Answer 2

Good afternoon! We are glad that you are interested in Cloud VPS service.
Units are an internal currency for accounting and paying for the use of the Cloud VPS service.
1 unit = $1
Cloud hosting is the most modern hosting service in the world, which mainly differs from other types of hosting in its high level of resiliency and reliability, as well as cost-effectiveness, since the cost of the service is estimated by the amount of resources you use.
Advantages and features of cloud VPS - https://vps.ua/clients/knowledgebase/170/----VPS.html:
a) high level of fault tolerance - server unavailability due to hardware failure is minimized
b) flexibility - the ability to change the amount of resources used in accordance with the needs at any convenient time
c) availability - affordable cost of the service, as close as possible to the current prices for conventional VPS
d) freedom of action - the ability to independently organize hosting, so that it will be most convenient for usage
e) speed of VPS creation - a couple of clicks and up to 5 minutes of waiting
f) pay as much as used - hourly payment for the service corresponding to the level of resource consumed
The above advantages distinguish Cloud VPS from conventional VPS and Dedicated Servers, which only partially satisfy all of the above. For example, changing the amount of resources used (assigning the desired amount at any time), easy-to-use server (when the server is not working, Cloud is not paid for this), the ability to create multiple servers and install your own operating system, and more.
On the page https://vps.ua/cloud-hosting/ there is an online calculator for choosing the required amount of resources for your service and calculating the cost. Also on this page there is a lot of useful information, there is a description of the Cloud VPS service.

Answer 3

It says that 1 unit = $1
Intervals are not indicated - you read it wrong, after the dash comes the price.
