I am also surprised as this is not the first time I am reading about it on HN. Linode seems to be highly vulnerable to certain attacks as we could see in the past. I hope they will fix it and provide a permanent solution as I was hoping to use them as a part of my network, but I see more and more signals they can't handle serious traffic. Hopefully, they will redesign their infrastructure to handle it.
I am with all of you guys that are affected by this. I am looking forward to them to resolving this soon.
- morecoffee 10y agoIsn't the problem money? They could certainly fix it but would have to raise the prices on each VPS?
- reefoctopus 10y agoI'd be ok with paying twice what I'm currently paying if they could solve this problem. We're with Linode because it would cost us about 10x as much to run on AWS, and we can't justify that.
- hakanensari 10y agoThey're price-matching DigitalOcean, so raising prices is probably out of the question.

- Sir_Cmpwn 10y agoDisclaimer: Linode employee, not in networking My understanding is that Atlanta in particular has some poor upstreams and is making our job pretty difficult there. Notice that it's almost always Atlanta that's getting hit. I would suggest just using other datacenters or making sure your high availability model includes several DCs (which I would suggest at any hosting provider, really).
