Say, since you have hands-on experience with this, would you mind helping me understand the idea itself? Specifically, assuming that I have my own hardware to set the whole thing up, what is the difference between having a server (possibly virtualized), and having a server "on the cloud"? And what is the main benefit of the latter over the former? If the server is running on your own hardware, it runs on your own hardware. How does the idea of a "cloud" come about then, and why is it any better than ordinary virtualized set of servers? Best, :-) Marko -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
