Analysis Post Week 3


This will be our third poll question analysis result, which is “What is the difference between cloud computing and "regular" hosting?’. We have received 5 votes from our guests. To ease the view of the results we have simplified the result into a pie chart as below:

Each percentage of votes is shown below:

A) Is it fully virtualised (0 votes – 0%)

B) Allows self-personalising (1 votes – 20%)

C) Price depends on the utilised resources (3 votes – 60%)

D) No Difference (1 votes – 20%)


From the pie chart, we can clearly see that “Price depends on the utilised resources” as the choice has highest percentage in the votes which cover 60% of the total. As most people know cloud computing system mainly is free of charge and most “regular” hosting is not free of charge as an example, to host standard website the provider has given limited disc space. The second highest vote is “Allows self-personalising” and “No Difference” which both have cover 20% each of total. From my view those who chose this two choice is because they might not be familiar about cloud computing or “regular” hosting. Majority of people already know cloud computing and “regular” hosting sure have difference from the name and even both systems have similar features. Lastly, the option of “Is it fully virtualised”  had not been voted by anyone which covers 0% of the total. Everyone knows that there is no system that let users fully virtualise it because of its security for other user and developer.

Finally, we appreciate and would like to thank all of you who participated in the last poll. We sincerely hope that you will continue to participate in our future polls. For those who did not participate in the previous poll, you still have choice in our next poll. Come see our blog frequently you may give us some suggestion to improve our blog.
