We have some large servers, but not too many of them. We're running 32 core nodes that are holding our Postgres, but the majority is smaller.

To quote another articles from that site: https://thehftguy.com/2016/11/18/google-cloud-is-50-cheaper-than-aws/ https://thehftguy.com/2016/11/18/google-cloud-is-50-cheaper-... The i2 comparisons are under "local SSD and scaling up". Google have local 400 GB SSD that can be attached to any instance. That's a lot more flexible and a hell lot cheaper when you have specific needs.
