Don't lots of smaller hosting providers have DDoS protection? Did you try one of those and find it wasn't good enough?

Don't lots of smaller hosting providers have DDoS protection? Did you try one of those and find it wasn't good enough?
- gzer0 7y agoNo, can you link me to some of these "smaller hosting providers [that] have DDoS protection"? In fact, I can't find any matching that description.
- Volundr 7y agoHetzner does. I guess it depends how much smaller is "smaller". DDoS protection I think is one of those things that demands a certain size.
- SXX 7y agoHetzner is 20 years old company with ~300 employees and ~230,000 servers. Of course on scale of AWS, Google and others it's fairly small, but CloudFlare is not all that much larger.

- AznHisoka 7y agoNo, but a few done, precisely because they partner with Cloudflare: https://www.bluehost.com/hosting/info/cloudflare https://www.bluehost.com/hosting/info/cloudflare
- StreamBright 7y ago>> Don't lots of smaller hosting providers have DDoS protection? It is pointless if you have a small pipe. Pipe jamming attacks are way too common and small vendors are almost always unable to cope with that.
