Absolutely, a cloud server is much more better than a VPS or a Dedicated server. Unlike VPS, cloud hosting has a centralized data system, which means even if a node in the cloud cluster goes down it won't affect your uptime and keeps your website live and running from other server. Hence, cloud servers are known for high availability and reliability. They are fully scalable, resources can be scaled according the needs and very cost-effective.
