SQL Transaction Processing, Price-Performance Testing: Microsoft SQL Server Evaluation: Azure Virtual Machines vs. Amazon Web Services EC2
This report outlines the results from a GigaOm Transactional Field Test, derived from the industry-standard TPC Benchmark™ E (TPC-E), to compare two IaaS cloud database offerings:
- Microsoft SQL Server on Amazon Web Services (AWS) Elastic Cloud Compute (EC2) instances
- Microsoft SQL Server Microsoft on Azure Virtual Machines (VM)
Both are installations of Microsoft SQL Server, and we tested Red Hat Enterprise Linux OS.
