In PostgreSQL performance, Google Cloud Platform "beats AWS by a factor of 2 in all [Aiven.io] tests".
- shoo 8y ago> A program that produces incorrect results twice as fast is infinitely slower. — John Osterhout
- oskari 8y agoNot sure if this comment was about the data corruption bug in Cloud SQL's PostgreSQL version, but the benchmarks we ran at https://aiven.io/blog/postgresql-cloud-performance/ https://aiven.io/blog/postgresql-cloud-performance/ used Aiven's PostgreSQL service on top of VMs from the cloud infrastructure providers and weren't affected by Cloud SQL issues. The same Linux, PostgreSQL, etc versions were used on all platforms. We didn't use RDS, CloudSQL or other managed services from the infrastructure providers, but the PDF version of the presentation does include comparison of our managed PostgreSQL service with RDS PG and Aurora PG if you're interested.
- gralx 8y agoThe article doesn't say the GCP results were incorrect. What's your source?
- bmn__ 8y agoThe article said they suffered data corruption. The Osterhout is à propos.
- manigandham 8y agoAiven is a managed service vendor and uses cloud VMs. This is not a test of the AWS/GCP directly managed Postgres.
