Should we be concern about our 40+ droplets with DO now? We built our business on DO, we really can go bankrupt as well as our 30+ clients if anything like this happens to us. Please change your support system ASAP otherwise we will be switching to another platform. We are expecting a very serious response from you.
- xvector 7y agoDo not use DO. The very fact that their default automated response to spam is prod downtime is unacceptable. It requires so many failures in understanding the service being provided across the company for this decision making process to have ever actualized that there is no reasonable expectation of safety or trust from DO at this point.
- bpicolo 7y agoEvery cloud company has anti abuse systems that will limit your access to their APIs / take down your machines if abuse is suspected - for example if it looks like you're mining bitcoin. Your prod isn't any different from your staging for them
- bufferoverflow 7y agoClearly you should be doing regular backups of everything, and not on DO. And make sure to test your backups. And make sure you have a fast migration plan into another cloud. Ideally you should be cloud-agnostic, but that's quite hard to achieve.
