I was looking at some cloud hosting price. Consider an entry level self hosted server:
PRICE: 40€
----------
CPU: i5 (4x 2.66 GHz)
RAM: 16GB
hard disk: 2TB
Bandwidth: 10TB/month with 100Mbps
Now consider an equivalent on a cloud structure... (for example phpfog)
PRICE: 29$
--------------
RAM: 613MB (LOL WUT?)
CPU: 2 Burst ECUs
Storage: 10GB (WUT?)
Basically with cloud, to have the same hardware of your entry level dedicated server you have to pay 300-400€...
Is it normal? I am missing something?
