Who we are

In 2016, Cloud Matrix (that’s us) had the ambitious idea to start offering web hosting, on top of a cutting-edge cloud computing platform. One of the key benefits of the cloud is the opportunity to scale up rapidly and affordably, in alignment with your business growth. With the power of the cloud, you no longer need to outlay massive amounts of capital for servers, IT infrastructure, or data centre hosting. Instead, you can instantly spin up hundreds or thousands of cloud servers in minutes and deliver results faster. Today, we provide a highly reliable, scalable, low-cost platform in the cloud that powers hundreds of businesses in South Africa, and around the world. Hundreds of clients who trust our cloud platform with their sensitive business data. As we continue our expansion, we are constantly researching, developing, and improving our cloud platform and hosting environment. With data centre locations in South Africa (Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town), New York, San Fransisco, Amsterdam, Singapore, Germany, Canada and India, people in all industries are taking advantage of our benefits.

Scalability
