We had a site hosted on CF business plan with fairly large bandwidth usage (completely legal, had a lot of media). They approached us with an enterprise plan but we did not have the budget for it.

Asked for a little time, they said fine and we moved much of the bandwidth usage to a couple of dedicated servers on OVH I think.

Never heard from them after that.



How do you deal with DDoS attacks against said OVH servers?

everyone that has used OVH and received an attack is laughing at that.


It's worked extremely well against every single DDoS we've received. I'd rate it as one of the best for the price.


In my experience OVH DDoS protection works pretty well. It's not perfect every single time.

I have more good things to say about OVH then bad. I do wish their edge firewall worked against internal traffic too however.


Can I ask how much bandwidth we are talking?

We are doing about 3TB


This was a couple years ago so not sure but likely 50+ TB/month.


I have been moving 1TB/mo on a free account for personal stuff. So far so good.
