AWS’s track record is still good, though. I mean, there will always be problems with cloud technology. But would you rather try to mitigate a DDoS attempt yourself or would you rather Amazon do it? I think giving up on AWS because of this event would be kind of throwing the baby out with the bath water.
- mrkurt 7y agoThe question is really "if you're not on AWS, do you have to mitigate a DDoS"? It's a big target for reasons unrelated to what most people run.
- cthalupa 7y agoIn my experience, you eventually piss SOMEONE off, or a competitor thinks it can drive business to them, etc. You probably won't get a huge one, but even a small DDoS can be difficult to mitigate for a company with limited resources.
