The benchmarks appear to show AWS wins by a considerable margin in all tests, and is cheaper at all quoted price points, but is hardly above Azure in the cost performance table. This appears to be due to including Azure's reserved pricing but continuing to use AWS and GCP's on-demand pricing. This is misleading, as both GCP and AWS offer discounts for yearly commitments.

Also, the RAM ratios for the machines are different across vendors. E.g. In the blogpost, the AWS machines have 2GB/vCPU vs 4GB/vCPU for GCE. This does depends on the workload though.
Thanks for your comment, for this part I will try to let the author knows this case.
