That is a strange perceiption, but depends what the OP and you are meaning with "cloud". There are many cloud service providers who don't talk about cloud by simply datacenter, but by the technology they use, meaning real cloud computing engine.

With a real cloud computing engine (Openstack, Cloudstack etc.), you get the highest availability ever, and beat dedicated servers by many times. The service is decoupled from the underlaying hardware, means any hardware downtime won't affect the service.
