  • IAAS Providers – Feature Comparison Chart

    A simple feature chart of Amazon EC2, GoGrid and Rackspace virtual servers (A, G and R in the chart, respectively). The BogoScore at the end is just the count of supported features, it doesn’t mean much but I just had to do it. Black squares are supported, white are not and grey are partly supported.
