If you are looking for the best cloud hosting providers for your next project. Checkout my recommendation: https://www.naijatechguide.com/2018/05/best-cloud-hosting.html

Cloud Hosting is a type of hosting where rather than using a single server to store the contents of a website, a cluster of servers (multiple servers) is used. The servers are located in different regions sometimes cutting across different continents. The content of your website is stored in each region within the cluster. The advantage of this architecture include:

Reliability: Because multiple servers store your website, this creates redundancy, such that the failure of one server will not cause your website to be unavailable. In cases where the provider have servers in multiple regions, a momentary crash of all servers in one region will not necessarily make your website unavailable.

Scalability: Because cloud hosting is not fixed to a single server architecture, it is easily scalable. Your website can run on multiple servers depending on its demand. As the resource demand for your website increases, more resources can be allocated to you. The resources, which include memory, CPU units, storage, etc will come from multiple hardware servers within the cluster.

Speed: Speed is also another advantage of Cloud hosting. Because the cloud provider usually has datacentres in different region each with a synced version of your website, when a user accesses your site, the server closest to their location loads your website increasing the load speed.

Cloud hosting is now going mainstream as most of the traditional hosting companies now offer cloud hosting plans. Here are some of the best Cloud Hosting Companies https://www.naijatechguide.com/2018/05/best-cloud-hosting.html
