Use Cases and Deployment Scope

The IBM VPC was used to increase render farm capacity during peak production times. Cost and data security were the most important features we evaluated, especially compared to other players like Amazon AWS and Google Cloud.

Alternatives Considered

Google Compute Engine

Offers a good price compared to Google Compute Engine, but we think deploying machines on Google to be a bit simpler due to the interface.

Likelihood to Recommend

IBM VPC is a good alternative to Amazon AWS and Google Cloud due to the competitive pricing. However, we've found the lack of some security features (for example, firewall on the VPC Classic) to be a security problem for most users.
