Abstract

Cloud computing provides on-demand and pay-as-you-go services. Analyzing the performance of these providers is an important indicator that should be investigated before targeting the migration of a system to a cloud environment. This article aims to analyze and present the performance of IaaS, FaaS and PaaS, using the free option, in the cloud providers AWS and GCP. Based on the tested configurations, the results show that the Amazon provider performed better compared to Google.
