Not so fast. We migrated all of our former Linode clients to AWS and Azure and have not suffered a single DDoS in the roughly 2 years since the move to other providers. At Linode, on the other hand, we suffered more than a dozen in less than a year - even with different VMs, different IPs, different OSes and different configurations. We were also plagued with overwhelming attempts to brute-force SSH and other services from IPs in China while we hosted with Linode. Nowhere else did we see so much malicious activity targeted against our clients' VMs as we did at Linode. During that time, Linode support tried ruthlessly to pass the buck and blame us and our clients, denying they had any major problems. Well, here we are and Linode DDoS attacks are STILL occurring on a regular basis, still making news, and they seem to do little about it in terms of a long-term solution. Whereas I have yet to have a single client suffer a Linode-scale DDoS on AWS or Azure at all after almost a half decade of using them.
