- geek_at 3y agotrue. I have a 9€/mo vps at Contabo for my blog and once boasted on HN that my small VPS is able to handle reddit/hn hugs which one user seemed to take personally and they started a DDOS against my VPS. I only realized this after Contabo contacted me and said the traffic is so high that other clients service is also degraded and they will have to take my VPS down if its much longer (which was understandable). Gladly the ddos stopped soon. But never was there any talk about any cost, they were very supportive
- jojobas 3y agoEven then Cloudflare forward proxy capable of real ddos handling wouldn't cost you $25 per month, some 0.5% of the 95% discounted bill. But hey - just think about how much you saved on Netlify! Composable!
