Cloudways acts as a middleman between you and major cloud providers like DigitalOcean, AWS, and Google Cloud. It gives you the raw power and speed of these clouds but adds a user-friendly control panel to manage them.
This means you don't need to know Linux command line to run a super-fast VPS. Cloudways handles security patching, backups, and PHP updates for you. It allows you to scale your server size up with one click as your traffic grows.
Key Highlights:
- Choice of Cloud: Deploy on DigitalOcean, AWS, or Google Cloud.

Verdict: The perfect bridge between shared hosting and raw cloud VPS.
