Cloud database benchmark
Test before you invest! Benchmark and compare cloud databases in real-world conditions before committing your time, budget, or data. Let dbench.cloud help you find the best-performing solution for your workload.

Last cloud database benchmark
Choose what fits you best
Whether you prefer full control (self-managed) or a managed experience (DBaas), dbench.cloud gives you the insights on sizing, performance and pricing across multiple cloud providers with a cloud database benchmark you can actually understand.
DBench.cloud also provides "DBRE optimized" setups, to give a maximum performance and efficiency for your costs, based on repeatable cloud database benchmark runs across different architectures.
In a future release, you will be provided with a calculator that gives you the cheapest and best-performing alternatives at competitive cloud providers, powered by continuous cloud database benchmark data.
This cloud database benchmark makes it easier for teams and stakeholders to agree on a data platform before committing budget.

Self-Managed architectures
A self-managed database architecture means you deploy, configure, secure, and maintain the database yourself, whether on your own hardware or cloud virtual machines. You gain complete control and flexibility for performance and security, but are responsible for all management, troubleshooting, updates, and backup processes. This approach is often chosen for complex or customized requirements but requires more technical expertise and effort.
View optionsDBaaS architectures
A Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS) architecture means the cloud provider fully manages the database infrastructure—including setup, upgrades, backups, and scaling — so you don't need to worry about maintenance or operational overhead. You get predictable pricing, automated performance, and fast scalability, but you have less control over configuration and may face vendor lock-in.
