    Do you know the right host which provides reliable anti DDoS proxy service?
    You know r00t-services.net is under my consideration. Need to know as much info as possible about them.
    Thanks in advance.

    i don't think so as CloudFlare can protect you from Layar 7 not from layar 4 [UDP and TCP]

    There are a lot of DDoS proxy companies out there for servers, some of the ones that I recommend to our customers are DDoS Defend, Black Lotus, Stage One Hosting, Staminus, and Java Pipe. All of these hosts offer proxy services to help mitigate attacks, and you can keep your current server so you don't have to worry about re-configuring your server on a new host.

    yes but these companies are very over priced and the problem is you have to change your server and you have to re-configuring it cause the attack know your original ip you should have to change your provider or ask them to shift you to any other node
    OP i suggest you to shift your website to any other High Quality providers with decent ddos protection in cheap price if you need help in Finding i can help you out with this

    I know at the company I work for, if you purchase DDoS protection, we will change your IP assignment so that you don't have to worry about completely re configuring your server. There is really no need to completely abandon to another hosting provider, depending on your needs.

    Black Lotus are the best but you're looking at a couple $100s for the servers.

    Just use a big host like HostGator or GoDaddy which servers are all DDoS Protected anyway and host 1,000s of sites on each server (So they're beastly anyways).
    Add cloudflare on to the hosting and it'll be quicker and more secure.

    You get what you pay for. DDoS protection is absolutely not cheap. The hardware to stop the attacks is very expensive.

    But it is. Real DDoS protection is absolutely 100% not cheap. Price out the hardware and see forself how much it costs. That's why the quality DDoS folk are expensive.

    Their shared hosting servers come with DDoS protect and traffic management scripts installed, otherwise they'd be consistently down when handling 100s of visitors a second (under 1,000s of sites)

    I would echo what others have said - you get what you pay for. We had a small website selling an app, and we suffered from a DDoS for over 2 weeks. We tried a number of cheap solutions which did little to mitigate the effects - it wasn't until we paid a good bit of money to Black Lotus that our site came back online. For us, it was costing us more to have the site down than what we had to spend, but we still didn't like having to pay out quite a considerable amount due to the volume being directed at our servers. But it worked in the end, the attackers gave up and moved on, which is what we needed!

    I would also add that when purchasing your DDoS protection, that you take time to make sure that in addition to the GB/s protected you also look at packets per second. I've ran a few game servers that would get DDoSed and the traffic would be under my protection, but because of the fragmented packets that were being sent, the PPS was over the protection offered by my provider.

    Also to add to the conversation about pricing out the hardware to perform DDoS mitigation, it is some of the most expensive hardware outside of core routing engines that a provider will purchase. This is why the hosts that offer it have their servers priced so much higher than non-protected hosts. Razor Servers has been looking for a quality cost effective DDoS protection plan to offer our customers, and it has been tough to make the numbers work for the price we want to offer our customers.

    What it all comes down to the triangle of networking you can have Fast, Reliable, or Cheap, you can choose any two but you can never have all three. When ever it is possible you should try to choose the Fast and Reliable over the cheaper options. In the long run it will end up being cheaper anyway, because it will work. When your network works, your websites earn you money, and can quickly negate the costs of having the DDoS protection.

    We can help protect against Layer 3/4 on a Business or Enterprise plan.

    I know that Fatcow servers are DDOS-protected, you can ask their support for details.
