Virtual Server Response Times

Posted in Web Technology on Saturday 4th April 2009 | Comments (0)

I used Ping­dom to test the response time of an Ama­zon EC2 (Elas­tic Com­pute Cloud) instance and a Dyn­DNS Spring Server. Both are vir­tual server offer­ings. DynDNS’s Spring Server was mar­gin­ally faster in terms of ping response time.

After using both for the past few months, I have found that the Dyn­DNS Spring Server is much eas­ier to get started with ini­tially, but Amazon’s EC2 is much more flexible.
