Cloud's New Performance Leader: Arm Beats x86

AWS's Arm Neoverse-based Graviton4 chips have set a new bar, beating AMD and Intel in performance and price-performance Signal65 benchmarks.

For years, x86 processors from AMD and Intel were seen as the safe bets in cloud computing. However, Arm has disrupted mobile and edge markets, and now datacenter performance is also being challenged.

New analysis from the consulting firm Signal65 shows that AWS's Arm Neoverse-powered Graviton4 chips are leading the competition on price-performance and outpacing alternative x86 offerings from AMD and Intel on overall performance across enterprise workloads.

This represents a decisive shift in the cloud computing performance landscape.

Author's summary: Arm Neoverse-based Graviton4 chips outperform x86 processors.
