Cloud computing helps to increase the speed at which applications are deployed, helping to increase the pace of innovated networked computing. Service deployed applications; Cloud computing can be provided using an enterprise data center’s own servers, or it can be provided by a cloud provider that takes all of the capital risk of owning the infrastructure.

Cloud computing incorporates virtualization, data and application on-demand deployment, internet delivery of services, and open source software. Virtualization enables a dynamic data center where servers provide resources that are utilized as needed with resources changing dynamically in order to meet the needed workload.

The combination of virtual machines and virtual appliances used for server deployment objects is one of the key features of cloud computing. Additionally, company’s can merge a storage cloud that provides a virtualized storage platform and is managed through an API, or Web-based interfaces for file management, and application data deployments.

Layered Service providers offering pay-by-use cloud computing solutions can be adjacent to company’s equipment leases. Public clouds are run by third party service providers and applications from different customers are likely to be mixed together on the cloud’s servers, storage systems, and networks. Private clouds are built for the exclusive use of one client, providing the utmost control over data, security, and quality of service. Private clouds can also be built and managed by a company’s own IT administrator. Hybrid clouds combine both public and private cloud models which may be used to handle planned workload spikes, or storage clouds configuration. Dedicated audits for security policies are a must.

From a performance (grid vs. cloud file) standpoint they've both been perfect solutions for low traffic web sites and I haven't had any down time issues with either company that hasn't been scheduled maintenance. If your reselling I'd go with Mosso, they have chat available to your clients via the control panel 24/7 but if your using it to host just your sites I'd agree with PJ getting the same value with (MT). One thing is, both of these companies tech support rock - "You can't go wrong with either company". I’ve had the chance to experiment with both Media Temple and Mosso.
