In real life, cloud hosting is anything that a host wants to market as a cloud.  |

Cloud hosting, now, is, in my opinion, a good choice for people with sites that have highly varied traffic levels. Cloud hosting should be able to scale easily, and by quite a bit of a margin (though not all providers offer this), so the customers will be able to pay for what he uses, saving money with little to no ill effects.
Do I think that cloud hosting is the future? It is part of the future, but I don't think it will replace shared hosting anytime soon. My impression is that most providers have positioned cloud hosting as an alternative to VPS or dedicated servers. There is also shared hosting on a cloud platform, but for the end user the advantages to classical shared hosting are not so easily observable IMHO.

But grid hosting is so passé from a marketing point of view. It's worthless these days. We need a new cool name to revolutionize the hosting industry every 3 years or so.  |

The computing power comes from an array of enterprise grade servers that have a minimum of 32 gigs of RAM per each physical device.

I must assume that's how your company defines the cloud. But it's by no means a universal, or a complete definition. I think it's safe to say that everyone has their own definition. |

That's one more marketing trick IMHO.

Generally, a cloud-hosted website is opearting on multiple connected servers. Instead of limited to a single server like what we have in traditional hosting services (dedicated/shared hosting), the website now has the access to multiple servers.

In fact cloud computing/hosting has grown from being a business concept to one of the fastest growing segments in the IT industry. From what I learned, many startup tech companies nowadays do not build their datacenters anymore, they simply go ‘cloud’.
