Methodology
Cold-start serverless container deployments measured from API submit to a successful HTTP probe. Tests run continuously across multiple regions per provider.
All data is collected via ProvisioningIQ — a continuous benchmarking platform that runs synthetic provisioning tests and publishes the results. No estimates, no vendor data; every number above came from a real provisioning attempt.
