Phoronix: 36-Way Comparison Of Amazon EC2 / Google Compute Engine / Microsoft Azure Cloud Instances vs. Intel/AMD CPUs

Earlier this week I delivered a number of benchmarks comparing Amazon EC2 instances to bare metal Intel/AMD systems. Due to interest from that, here is a larger selection of cloud instance types from the leading public clouds of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud, Microsoft Azure, and Google Compute Engine.

Typo:

All of these public cloud compute benchmarks and raw Linux CPU benchmarks were conducted in a fully-automated and reprodubie way using the open-source Phoronix Test Suite benchmarking software

Very useful results, I loved the performance/price scale idea. Are you planning on doing any test that makes use of disk? It's the worse bottleneck that I've usually come across public cloud providers.

Any chance you could add Digital Ocean to your cloud providers for testing?

Indeed, the clouds have arrived, towering.
