Expedient outperformed Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure in an independent study of cloud computing providers. The study tested the virtual CPU (vCPU), storage, and internal network performance of each provider. Expedient achieved 3-9% higher vCPU performance, 8.7-32.4x higher storage performance, and 39-46% higher internal network performance than AWS and Azure. Overall, the study found that Expedient offered the highest value for most services and exhibited the best performance metrics.

ACCORDING TO AN INDEPENDENT STUDY BY CLOUD SPECTATOR:
EXPEDIENT OUTPERFORMS
ALL OTHER PROVIDERS
EXPEDIENTCLOUD=UPTO 53x thevalueofaws+Azure
The purpose of this study was to examine the differences in performance and value of the
cloud offerings across various public cloud providers.
The performance of all applications is highly
dependent on the vCPU. The vCPU is
responsible for the processing and
orchestration of all applications.

STORAGE Performance
Because most applications and all data reside
on the storage, having fast storage
performance is a key consideration for
smooth application performance
in many cases.

INTERNALNETWORK PRICE Performance
The performance of the internal network on
each of the providers was tested by examining
the throughput between VMs within the same
data center. The network was tested using Iperf
which sends data bi-directionally between two
servers for a set amount of time.
INTERNAL NETWORK
PERFORMANCE
The study revealed that Expedient offered the highest overall value for the majority
of services. Expedient exhibited the highest performance in vCPU, storage and
network tests.
