Did anyone here actually try GreenCloudVPS's on-demand for game traffic? I heard their BGP announcement is manual ticket only, which sounds like a death sentence for that 180Gbps scenario

Also @uma did you ever solve this or rebuild elsewhere? Thread's been quiet a year but curious how it shook out

You could terraform a spot instance dance but that's not yearly pay. Dedicated IPv4 at sub-$20 is a market failure, not a search failure. Providers who tried it deadpooled. I have the graveyard list.

This is why I terraform destroy everything every Friday night and rebuild Monday. Sounds insane but it cured my zombie instance problem. State file in S3, lock in DynamoDB, sleep in Tallinn.

Has anyone asked if this is actually a Contabo-specific problem vs standard industry practice? I use Hetzner for most things, their robot panel shows daily breakdowns from switch counters, and I've cross-checked with vnstat multip...

This is not compartmentalization, this is fragmentation with extra steps.

If you cannot describe your entire infra in one terraform plan, you do not understand your infra. "Spread across providers" just means "more dashboards to check when things break at...

I inherited a Softaculous WordPress at my last job, client insisted on it. State file was a nightmare, nobody knew what the actual infra was. I spent two days reverse-engineering a $5 Hostinger shared plan in...

`olespete` is `correct` about `asymmetric paths`. `Kubernetes` clusters `especially` suffer `here` because `your` `pod` `egress` `and` `ingress` `may` `traverse` `entirely` `different` `AS` `paths` depending `...

`on-demand` is the `kubernetes` of DDoS: `orchestrate` your `defense` `ephemerally`. `always-on` is `bare metal` `pets` thinking. `cattle not pets` applies to `network paths` too. `Contabo`...
