On Tuesday of this week, we kicked off a pair of EC2 instances and a pair of our i7 workstations to produce updated data. We dive right in with the EC2 JSON test results, but please read to the end where we include important notes about what has changed since last week. First up is data from the EC2 m1.large large instances.

This is an EC2 test run on a pair of Large instances. We ran each test on EC2 and our i7 hardware. First up is plain JSON serialization on Amazon EC2 large instances. The high-performance Netty platform takes a commanding lead for JSON serialization on EC2. Starting again with EC2. JSON serialization test.

But be aware, the highest-performance frameworks are network limited in the JSON serialization and Plaintext tests. Once again, bear in mind that these tests are network-bound by our gigabit Ethernet. On EC2, the Netty and Vert.x The maximum query and update performance for Mongo on EC2 is substantially higher than MySQL.

We''ve included Windows on EC2 results as a separate set of data within the results view but caution that the results should be considered preliminary. The test is uniquely I/O limited where previous tests have been predominantly CPU limited, and in some circumstances, network limited. View Round 5 results now.

What’s astonishing and few other than those who lived it as startups (I launched my second startup in this era) realize is how profound of an impact that rise of Amazon AWS (S3 & EC2) had on the startup market. The skills and networks inherent in making the early bet are consistent with the funds that play in this category.

“By the way, back then it was just Amazon’s Elastic Compute Cloud [EC2] and both ‘Elastic’ and ‘Cloud’ were candidate key terms. I taught a somewhat crazy course about writing and deploying a scalable website in Ruby on Rails and deploying it in EC2. The term ‘cloud computing’ only caught on much later.
