I'm totally new to openstack and after seeing tutorials running it on both single node and multi node(at least 3 consisting 1 controller 1 compute and 1 network node) i was wondering whats the diffrence and is there any advantages with multi nodes over single nodes ones?

Open stack system consists of lot services. If you are running all these in single node , then
there will be resource scarcity issue unless you have a machine with very high CPU,RAM etc. Another advantage of multi node configuration is failover. In 3 node config if one node is down then you can continue with 2 nodes (provided you have service replication). Better go for at least 3 node config which is recommended by openstack.
