IBM Cloud VPC is easier to use and a more integrated solution when compared to the other products I have tried. I could not complete the test on the other platforms due to complexity and a lack of proper help in configuring the solution. For me IBM was the best solution to proceed with and also cheaper.

From my personal experience I chose virtual servers over bare metal servers

I am currently using all virtual servers and not Bare Metal Servers anymore. I do not see the advantage of paying more and encountering more issues with Bare Metal Servers. Virtual servers seem like a better situation for my use.

If you are dissatisfied with the cloud server service you are currently using, please try it.

  • Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)
I considered AWS EC2, but found the difference in operating costs compared to IBM Cloud Bare Metal Servers to be too great. It is the data transfer fee.AWS EC2: 0 cost for upload, pay-as-you-go for download IBMCloud Bare Metarl Servers: no cost for both upload and downloadIn other words, for AWS EC2, the more frequently downloads are used, the more the operational costs increase. As a result, we chose IBM Cloud Bare Metal Servers.

This IBM System is an Effective Cloud Virtualization Solution with easy tools to manipulate.
