RSC = Rackspace Cloud
EC2 = Amazon EC2
- EC2 doesn't offer DNS and reverse-DNS services but RSC does.
- EC2 doesn't offer hybrid deployment but RSC does.
- EC2 comes way short by offering a mere pay-per-incident support - this is simply unmanaged hosting in a fancy name. However at RSC, you get 24/7 live chat and telephone support.
- RSC can be much better scaled, and a lot more easily.
- RSC guarantees a contracted amount of CPU computing / RAM while EC2 gives you limits on them. When resources aren't guaranteed, you are basically on shared servers.
- RSC has directly attached and persistent storage.
