Last month we delivered our first benchmarks of the Amazon EC2
Cloud, but those initial tests were limited to just a few of their cloud
computing instances due to failures with the Ubuntu EC2 operating system
on their other compute instances. Earlier this month we then showed how
the Amazon EC2 Micro was comparable to a Nokia N900 and Intel Atom, but
now we have a more exhaustive comparison complete of all major Amazon
Elastic Compute Cloud types. Using the Amazon Linux AMI operating
system, we have run a plethora of performance benchmarks on the
m1.small, m1.large, m1.xlarge, m2.xlarge, m2.2xlarge, m2.4xlarge,
c1.medium, and c1.xlarge cloud computing instances.
