C Summary of Benchmark Data Recommendations
The information shown in the following table is a summary of the benchmark data described throughout the document. This data is intended to provide guidance and is based solely on the observed results from the test setups described in this document. Recommendations may need to be adapted to the conditions in a given operator’s cloud, such as differences in traffic patterns, feature utilization patterns, and infrastructure differences.
