Which Cloud is Best For Your Enterprise Strategy?

Cloud performance benchmarks give you the data you need to get the best-fit, best performing cloud for your business needs.

Price / Performance Value

Variation in price and performance with public and private providers makes it nearly impossible to compare one from another. Cloud performance benchmarks provide price to performance data based on your specific performance needs.

Application Performance

The performance of different applications (i.e. Big Data, eCommerce, SaaS) will vary from one cloud provider to another. Know how your applications will perform within a specific architecture before signing with a service provider.

Data You Can Count On

Our Cloud Benchmarking methodology is repeatable, reliable and transparent. Having real world test data will ensure you make optimal data-driven decisions.

Lowering Total Cost of Ownership Through Performance

If you are considering Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), one key question you need to ask is why does performance matter when evaluating the public cloud? Some provider VMs can achieve the same performance levels with fewer resources and this can have a substantial impact on cost.

This graphic shows a basic scenario where a business would need a 4 vCPU machine on Provider A to effectively run its application. However, on Provider B, a 2 vCPU machine would satisfy the same application requirements with a lower cost through fewer resources. The lowest priced provider will not always lead to the lowest costs.
