CloudVantage Pushes New Fix for Costly Downtime

CloudVantage has introduced a fresh toolkit that targets one of the biggest problems facing Nigerian businesses: sudden system failures. The announcement arrived on Wednesday, marking a major step in how local companies manage traffic spikes and rising operating costs.

For years, many businesses in Nigeria struggled to choose between spending heavily on idle servers or risking a collapse when customer traffic surged. CloudVantage says its new Autoscaling and Alarming features aim to end that compromise by adjusting computing power automatically and alerting teams before issues escalate.

Chief Executive Officer Muhideen Ashiru explained that the system behaves like a digital thermostat. It boosts capacity when usage rises and scales down once demand drops. Because of this, businesses avoid paying for unused resources while keeping operations steady during peak moments.

“Traditionally, Nigerian businesses have faced a difficult choice: either risk a total system crash during peak traffic periods or overspend on dormant server space to ensure stability,” Ashiru said. He added that the new update ends this dilemma by shifting resource allocation in real time.

A New Watchdog for System Health

Ashiru also highlighted the “alarming” component, which monitors performance round the clock. The feature sends instant notifications whenever the system crosses a predefined threshold. According to him, this approach helps technical teams resolve issues long before they reach the customer.

“Complementing this is the alarming system, a 24-hour monitoring tool that serves as a digital sentry,” he explained. He noted that the tool provides rapid alerts, allowing organisations to prevent disruptions rather than reacting after damage has occurred.

Because many companies still depend on manual checks, CloudVantage believes this automation could free up technical teams to focus on customer experience and product innovation instead of server troubleshooting.

Designed for a Growing African Tech Market

Ashiru stressed that the update aims to give business leaders more confidence as they scale. “The update is rooted in providing business leaders with peace of mind,” he said, noting that firms can now respond instantly to market changes while maintaining tighter control of their infrastructure.

CloudVantage says the launch reinforces its intention to deliver practical and scalable cloud solutions for modern African enterprises. With competition rising across the continent, the company sees automated performance management as a critical step for businesses that want reliability without overspending.
