- canpan 5mo agoHow to handle domains? The rest is easy, but your domain registrar blocking you sounds like a pain. My current solution is to use a local small provider, just for the domain. Then if there is a problem with your play account it is out of any blast radius.

- FlamingMoe 5mo agoWhat do you mean by local small provider? A registrar on main street?
- rekabis 5mo agoWhat the deuce are you blathering on about. An account got blocked, this has nothing to do with a domain. And I’m talking about having disparate failovers that don’t rely on a single hosting provider. At that point, who cares what Google does to your cloud account… work with the hot failover and spin up another hot failover somewhere else.

- rekabis 5mo agoPrecisely. If you’re going to have a hot failover, it behoves you to have an entirely separate entity billing you for that hosting. Honestly, I don’t know where the downvotes are coming from. Do people have no clue about service resiliency? I can understand if it’s a personal project or you haven’t yet scaled to paying customers, but anything at scale with serious money involved needs to be completely independent of the underlying hosting. It should remain up even if an entire provider goes titsup.
