Googling “AWS EC2 benchmark” leads to nowhere. Does anyone have a good source of objective instance comparison between cloud providers? I went off one day and created instances on AWS, GCP and DO - and ran Geekbench5 (yes I know it’s not a professional benchmarking tool but better than nothing I suppose) and found large differences. DO was the slowest of all. Do most companies do their own due-diligence before committing large sums of money into AWS?

I’ve been using https://www.vpsbenchmarks.com/ but haven’t done much in the way of independently confirming their rankings.

Digital Ocean is really serving a different market. The folks recommending them tend to be running smaller workloads (so DO can have relative lower perf per vCPU etc).
The best I've found - run the workload you actually plan on running. Even on AWS etc, the perf differences are getting pretty meaningful between instance families even at similar price points.
