How was the recent attack in Dallas? Labor day weekend Atlanta went down for about 25 minutes until they squashed it. Then I saw dallas came under attack. How did it handle the DDOS this time?
- tomschlick 10y agoWe had a few seconds of latency tacked onto our normal response time for about 40 mins but everything stayed up. Here is a graph from our monitoring tool (grafana with WorldPing) http://tomschlick-screenshots.s3.amazonaws.com/RKRIJQ9Q http://tomschlick-screenshots.s3.amazonaws.com/RKRIJQ9Q
- poopythecat 10y agoVery interesting. Looks like Dallas can still handle a DDOS better. Got news that Atlanta is increasing their bandwidth 6X real soon. Its scheduled this month. They handled this DDOS pretty good. Although we actually had downtime. Adding 6X bandwidth should make a huge difference. Not sure which datacenter should be my primary though after the 6X upgrade. Oh wait, linode just responded to me. They are recommending atlanta for ddos over dallas after the 6x upgrade. Hmmmmm.
- tomschlick 10y agoGood to know! We are looking into a secondary DC setup soon so we will have to look at Atlanta after their capacity bump.
