Comparing CPU Multicore Performance of OCI Compute Standard Flex Shapes

Comparing CPU Multicore Performance of OCI Compute Standard Flex Shapes

When selecting a compute instance, factors such as raw computational power, price-to-performance ratio, and workload optimization play a significant role. The following standard flex shapes available in most OCI regions are: VM.Standard.E4.Flex (Processor: AMD EPYC 7J13. Base frequency 2.55 GHz, max boost frequency 3.5 GHz) VM.Standard.E5.Flex (Processor: AMD EPYC 9J14. Base frequency 2.4 GHz, max boost frequency 3.7 GHz) VM.Standard3.Flex (Processor: Intel Xeon Platinum 8358. Base frequency 2.6 GHz, max turbo frequency 3....

Performance testing with PHP and OCI Compute instances

Performance testing with PHP and OCI Compute instances

A while ago, I developed a tool with the aim of assessing the actual performance improvement between different versions of PHP. Subsequently, I search to understand which AWS instance type was the most performant. Since AWS does not allow for custom sizing of CPU and RAM resources, I wanted to explore the differences among the various instance types and determine which one would be most cost-effective to choose. During the holiday season, I dedicated myself to expanding this project and doing the same analysis with OCI , Oracle Cloud Infrastructure....
