#32Re: Linode is suffering on-going DDoS attacks
#33So weird that Linode hasn't been able to mitigate this. I'd love to learn more about what's happening there. Particularly since we host our production documentation site on a linode vm. I want to move it off their server and into our DC but can't access the server to do it. Bummer. I've been such a big fan of theirs.
This type of action is what the people behind the DDOS attack are looking for. Its not Linode fault...
Re: Linode is suffering on-going DDoS attacks
#34Just 2 days ago, a Linode employee was badmouthing AWS here on HN for being too expensive:

A DDoS will be much more expensive to customers than choosing AWS over Linode (or an equivalent low-priced service).
EC2 has been around since 2006, and never has had any issues resembling this.

#35Earlier quoted context omitted.
You buy servers from multiple different companies, you install software on them.
Anyone can do that. I was actually wondering if there are software to automate this.
Ansible is probably the best bet - once you have SSH it'll pretty much work with anything and it also has support for creation of servers on several cloud providers and stuff.
We use it for automatic configuration of everything from colocated hardware to $5/mo VMs on DigitalOcean and other low-cost virtual server providers and it works great.

You could use something like Terraform to help automate this. It's like CloudFormation but also supports GCE, Azure, DigitalOcean, etc.
Re: Linode is suffering on-going DDoS attacks
#37I would like to correlate the comments in this thread with past comments on every single article about AWS or GCE of the form "this is so expensive / complicated I run my boxes on Linode for half the price". DDoS protection is one of the things you pay for on the big clouds.
Re: Linode is suffering on-going DDoS attacks
#38This may be a dumb question as I haven't read the bill, but isn't this what CISA is supposed to help guard against in the future? If Linode has an easier way of sharing info with the USG, can that help pinpoint and mitigate this attack from happening in the future?
Edit: how about a response instead of downvotes?

#39Been happening daily for about 5 days now. Pretty frustrating but I'm sure it's frustrating for them too. Thinking about moving to Google Compute Engine instead.
:(

Thank you for being so understanding!
