I have been a big OVH advocate (cheap prices + free DDoS protection + good hardware) and have been using them for years.
However, I am really frustrated by the lack of communication during this incident. All I had was the tweets from the founder, while their status page was down and I had no other place to reach out to them (phone + ticket system down).
What is worse is that they treat the individual SBGs (SBG1, SBG2, etc) as individual availability zones, when they truly are not. I had an application using their vrack on different SBGs availability zones and they all went down.
Anyway, glad they are fixing it, and glad for the clarification that they don't have real availability zones. Will design my applications better next time.
- therealmarv 9y agoCan I ask if vrack itself stayed online with non SBG instances inside? I'm just curious if this also affects their network wide services like vrack or public cloud instances outside SBG.
- tgtweak 9y agoIf power to network gear was down, then it probably affected vrack connectivity, likely on the entirety of sbg.
