Can't find any good posts on this subject connected with a good solution, my idea was to host with OVH VPS or even dedicated if the server-income would be able to pay for it. However the posts I've read doesn't make me feel so comfortable with this decision and the odds of a server being self-sustainable with dedicated cost is scarce.
I'm thinking of starting a server but I've always felt demotivated due to DDoS concerns and it seems to me that it's still a major issue remained unsolved. Many posts have been made with DDoS problems but the posts don't have any significant follow-ups about how they fixed it or lead to anything concrete. Spending 1000+ hours on a server just to get DDoSed isn't very fun. I also don't have the money to spend hundreds of dollars every month on a host.
Have you hosted with OVH VPS or something similar and if so, what was your experience with this, I'd love to hear it.
They say they have DDoS protection but how reliable is it, can I expect a DDoS-free environment from OVH VPS or Dedicated?
Is dedicated server a must or it won't really help all that much and is just a waste of money? (DDoS-wise, not server performance)
There's a bunch of OT servers out hosted with OVH on otservlist and they don't seem affected by DDoS I suppose since they are still online and doing very well?
On the other side I've seen posts that has had trouble with DDoS through OVH and I can't make sense of it, have they incorporated their own layer of protection?
