Web Hosting is actually a real server that includes all files of your website. The bunch of documents from your website somewhere hosted on a unique server. When the user comes to your website, the browser will download those documents from your web host server and shows them to the user. The server will store the files of the website with standard web hosting.
Cloud Hosting is a virtual server to include your website files. It is the service where your data is stored across multiple connected servers and can be accessed remotely from anywhere via the Internet. Imagine “cloud” is like a single computing machine that has a huge storage space and processing power. And, the biggest advantage of cloud hosting is that it allows for resource scaling. Cloud hosting is also known as cluster server hosting or server on-demand hosting.
With traditional web server hosting, the user is limited to the physical constraints of that server where your website is hosted. But that's not the case with cloud hosting. Here there is a unique configuration that lets you pull data from a network of multiple servers. It's more like a cloud (various remote servers) tapping into an underlying network of actual physical servers to access stored data. This acts as an affordable hosting solution that is reliable as well as scalable.
In old-school hosting, all your website's data and files are stored on a single server. Whenever a visitor opens your site, these files are drawn from the single server and presented to the user. Whereas in cloud hosting, your website's resources are scattered across multiple virtual servers and they can be derived efficiently as and when needed. This is what makes cloud hosting more reliable and scalable with time.
