so I was talking to my server's tech support they suggested I use cloud linux while their supervisor said it will do me no good as my server does not have a lot of resource (80 gb storage and 2 gb ram)

I would advise you this scheme:
1) Install nginx and eaccelerator on your server. It doen't metter what type of server you use (cloud/dedicated/VPS)
2) Configure Oxwall to store all your static content on CDN (like amazon or rackspace). You can find a manual about this here http://docs.oxwall.org/install:cloud_hosting ;
Note, that if you switch to CDN on working site, you should migrate your current static content to CDN first.
These two option will reduce resource usage a lot.

Are you sure to include "{" in the value?
I believe you guys are discussing about using cloud CDN installion and not the cloud server hosting.. Just yesterday I successfully installed in cloud. I am working on the Amazon CDN integration.

It depends on your specific needs. Cloud Linux is a powerful operating system that offers increased security and reliability for web hosting, but it may not be the right fit for everyone. If you need improved performance and scalability, then switching to Cloud Ssd vps Linux could be worth it. However, it is important to consider the cost of switching to Cloud Linux and the potential benefits it could bring to your business.

Switching to Cloud Linux can be a beneficial decision, but whether it's worth it depends on your specific needs and circumstances. Here are some factors to consider when deciding:
Performance: Cloud Linux can often offer better performance compared to traditional shared hosting environments. If your website or application experiences performance issues on your current hosting, the switch might be worth it.
Security: Cloud Linux typically comes with enhanced security features that isolate accounts, reducing the risk of one compromised account affecting others. If security is a top concern, it could be a good choice.
Resource Isolation: It provides resource isolation, ensuring that one user's activities don't impact the performance of others. If you are on a shared hosting plan and need more predictable resource allocation, Cloud Linux can be a valuable option.
Compatibility: Ensure that your existing applications and services are compatible with Cloud Linux. Migration can be complex, so it's essential to assess compatibility.
Cost: Consider the cost implications. While Cloud Linux can offer improved performance and security, it may come at a higher price than your current hosting. Calculate the cost vs. benefits.
Support: Check if your hosting provider offers reliable support for Cloud Linux. A smooth transition and ongoing support are crucial for a successful migration.
Scalability: If you anticipate growth in your website or application's traffic and resources, Cloud Linux offers scalability options that can accommodate your needs.
In summary, whether it's worth switching to Cloud Linux depends on your specific requirements. If you're experiencing performance or security issues with your current hosting and are willing to invest in a more robust solution, Cloud Linux could be a valuable choice. However, it's essential to assess compatibility, costs, and support options before making the switch.
