Would it better for a growing hosting provider to keep managing each dedicated server to separate risks but have full licensing costs for each or should they rather go to the cloud? The prices seem so much higher for cloud than for dedicated servers.
Would building ones own cloud make any sense (imagine you get extremely competitive prices for dedicated servers)?
Which software would easily allow to 'plug in the servers' and create a single large entity that could be managed like one huge/growing machine into which one would install cloud linux, control panel, malware scanner, imunify360, etc?

Thanks!
Cloud can scale vertically up to size of the dedicated server hypervisor runs on if they use 64 cores servers then eventually you can have 64 cores VM.
They are designed for horizontal grotuth on modern app when you have more vistors you can add more front end servers and / or more databases servers depend on what your app need (not to build one big virtual machine from multiple servers).
Thank you wesen.
So max cpu = max cpu of hypervisor, max storage = sum of all servers that have been virtualized.
How can I get more cpu? Where does load-balancing come in for the other CPU's to be used from the other plugged in servers?
