"The numbers given in this article do not account for any AWS reservation."

While I agree that Google's pricing model is superior, the author's position on reserved instances accounts for ~40% of the cost difference.

In a drag race between instances AWS tends to lose. If you value the enormous feature and service surface-area that AWS provides it's a different story. Either way we win; both companies will engage in a brutal price and feature war for many years to come.
