I would be surprised if Google or Amazon had an existing capability that could match this machine on linpack. Stringing together FLOPS isn't the challenge. It's constructing an interconnect that can support the bandwidths needed to keep the compute units busy and actually hit anything close to what theoretical peak performance they are capable of while solving a specific problem. Google and Amazon have machines built for very different purposes.
