Now basically what features do you expect when you hear / read the term 'CLOUD' from a provider and not just people with RAID-10 SSDs on E5s / E3 clusters.
Most common thing people think is cloud means various locations and higher network speeds and IO speeds but what is it that you're looking for when CLOUD is mentioned ?
P.S This is the list I came up with
- Various Locations
- Faster deployment
- 100% availability / HA with Failover IPs
- Floating IPs / Reserved ones
- Geo re-location at the ease of client
- Hourly billing
- Snapshots Cluster
- True 10 gig / 1 gig bandwidth
