As the very name implies,
cloud hosting servers are those that run on the basis of the cloud computing environment. For this reason, cloud hosting servers are also termed as virtual dedicated servers or the VDS. Although a cloud hosting server can be called as a VDS, it is not always true that a VDS can be a cloud server. This is because of the reason that a virtual dedicated server is placed on a single hardware and any single point of failure implies that the entire hardware suffers.
