Methodology
The objective of the test suite was to show out-of-the-box performance for cloud servers across
multiple cloud hosting vendors. The following steps were performed to run the tests on NephoScale
and other industry leading cloud IaaS providers.
1. A virtual server instance in the cost range provided was provisioned for each vendor in the
matrix.
2. The open-source CloudBench tool was then downloaded, and without any post provisioning
modifications of the VM, the tool was run and the data recorded.
3. CloudBench uses industry standard benchmark tests for Linux servers, including Phoronix Test
Suite, fio, ioping, and IOzone and logs the combined output in any easy to read format.
4. All tests we performed using Ubuntu Precise 14.04 64-bit and Python 2.7, and the default
parameters were provided when running CloudBench.
5. All pricing and performance data is accurate as of September 1st, 2014.

Conclusion
Taken on average cloud server disk I/O performance on NephoScale outperforms the industry average 2-3
times. At less than half the price of the competitors NephoScale's price-to-performance ratio is the best in the
industry with 1-8 times the value over the average.
