Google Cloud vs AWS vs Azure vs Linode - Speed Comparison
Source: YouTube · DevOps & AI Toolkit · published Feb 2, 2021 · 24:55
This video compares the speed of major cloud providers for Kubernetes operations in a timed race across four different challenges 0:00.
Key Takeaways:
• Linode was the fastest at creating a Kubernetes cluster (1-2 minutes), followed by Azure (3.5 minutes), Google Cloud (9 minutes), and AWS (18 minutes) 5:55-10:15
• Linode was disqualified from the race because instead of upgrading the cluster properly, it destroyed and recreated the cluster causing downtime 14:27-16:12
• For cluster upgrades, Azure was fastest (17 minutes), followed by Google Cloud (32 minutes), and AWS was slowest (~43 minutes) 16:50-17:23
• Google Cloud won the container creation with attached volume challenge, while AWS was consistently the slowest across all operations 19:44-20:15
Among the qualified providers, Azure had the best overall speed performance, with Google Cloud in the middle and AWS as the slowest option 23:07-23:53.

wonderful okay horrible let the race begin i doubt that there is anybody faster in the industry this is ridiculous this is horrible would you like to know whether it is better to use aws or azure or google cloud or lenovo or some of the other smaller players now if that's what you would like to know that's not what you will find out because this is not a detailed comparison as a matter of fact whomever tells you that they can give you tips and detailed information which one is better in let's say 10 minutes or 20 minutes is lying that's impossible and this is not the subject we are not going to focus on comparison between those instead we will focus on speed i am going to tell you which one is fastest which one is slowest and which one is so this is a race we are going to have a winner we …
