Don't use Digital Ocean (DO) for production
This isn&#x27;t really a complaint and i was lucky that it was my personal stuff.<p>But somehow a droplet was part of a DDOS and network was booted off ( 1 network spike for 10 minutes). Let&#x27;s just say it was stressful and very unwelcome at the time.<p>I also went to mention that i did receive feedback and there was definitely a human from their end involved.<p>But, I wouldn&#x27;t want to imagine what would have happened if it were websites of clients. I took more measures by now, but i think the actual culprit was a contractor that did some work for me.<p>I&#x27;m wondering how other providers handle that ( a VPS for example)? Anyone has some insights on how it can be handled better?
