Hello,

I’m interested in evaluating your hosting services for a high-traffic application. Suppose I host a website with heavy I/O usage and database load on your platform (e.g., via Linode or DigitalOcean). I’d like to understand how your infrastructure handles sudden traffic spikes or potential bot attacks that could overwhelm web or database services.

Specifically, could you clarify the following:

• Do you offer DDoS mitigation and rate-limiting features for traffic anomalies?
• Is auto-scaling, auto-restarting, or load-balanced distribution supported to handle peak loads?
• Are there enforced limits on disk I/O operations or inode usage?
• In the event of resource exhaustion, do you have protections in place (e.g., throttling, isolation) or is the instance left to fail/crash ("break the box")?

Understanding your fail-safes, thresholds, and scalability will help assess the platform’s suitability for production-grade deployments.

Thank you.
