Explain the difference between cloud and
traditional data centers.
In a traditional data centre, the major drawback is the expenditure.
• A traditional data centre is comparatively expensive due to heating,
hardware, and software issues.
• So, not only is the initial cost higher, but the maintenance cost is also
a problem.
Cloud being scaled when there is an increase in demand.
• Mostly the expenditure is on the maintenance of the data centres,
while these issues are not faced in cloud computing.
