Well it depends on (your local setup).

  1. How many machines/nodes
  2. How much CPU and memory per node. And one of most important is if nodes has SSD
  3. It depends on network.

In ElasticCloud you can choose amount of memory and storage, but not amount of nodes (Nodes depends on amount of memory because its better to have one node with 32 gigs of memory than 3 nodes with 10 gb for instance.) Also important that EsCloud setup is using SSD.

So again all of that depends while local setup will give you more flexibility and control, but cloud could simplify your life.

One more option would be to go with AWS or Azure because you will be able to add remove nodes on demands so it would be a bit easier to experiment and see what setup is better for you.

To Sum up: if we are talking that you have same setup locally and same setup in cloud there will be no difference in terms of performance but, only one thing would be different its latency.
