So the CMS is hosted in your cloud, and the website itself is hosted where ever we want? Am I understand this correctly?

Not sure I understand the advantage of this approach. It's interesting, but at the end of the day everything is still in the cloud, and the sites are only secure as the security on your cloud environment.

That is correct. The management tools and the DB are in our cloud. All you need is a server running Apache and PHP. Some of the main advantages are: - no DB to maintain - much less code to run and secure - really fast responses because all the data is cached locally - updates comes very fast, because they are mainly in the management tools which we host and seamlessly provide to you

High availability? Separating the editing/management interface from the live website allows you to quickly "re-publish" a site if something catastrophic happens to the hosting server. My organizations uses an enterprise CMS with the same concept. Our editing interface could be down, but the live sites are still up, and vice versa.

That's correct. The interface though is not separated. The client software that is running on your server seamlessly connects to our cloud to provide you with the management tools needed. You can call it a proxy, but a much smarter one.
