Hiya Alexey

What does the other graphs in this table indicate?

Also, the table is very small on the web page, and you cannot click the image to enlarge it.

Cheers friend.

Two other popular cloud providers.

this graph says two distinct things:

  1. in our testing against our top competitor, Storj is always faster
  2. Storj is consistent, around the clock… where the competitor has some well documented performance degradation

I agree, but this information is not distinctly in the graph. The graph cannot be read as a stand alone model and must be read together with the text above.

This is not good; graphs must be able to stand alone. As it stands now, the graph is not portable, and it let’s say I wanted to repost it on my blog, I’d have to be very specific about letting the reader know the missing information. It’s a small thing in the large picture for sure, but it’s a place to be better :slight_smile:

Without specifics all the information that is relayed here is “there exists some vendor that performs worse than storj”.

No decision or assessment can be made based on this — because of course there will be worse and better providers

Then specify that competitor and the document. “Storj performs better than GreasyStorage Inc in these scenarios” is actionable. “Storj performs better than Anonymous Inc” isn’t, because the assumption is you are comparing with literary the worst one nobody was going to use in the first place.

If the comparison is truthful and accurate you shall name the providers you compare with. If they don’t like it — they can stick it, they cannot sue for defamation if it’s based on facts.

I wonder if the hyperscalers have any EULAs/T&Cs/ToSes which would prevent publishing explicit benchmarks against competitors, like Oracle has with their database. Or whether they can introduce any legally binding ones.
