  1. Re: WTF --- So, no backups, at all? by corychristison · · Score: 1 · on South Korean Web Hosting Provider Pays $1 Million In Ransomware Demand (bleepingcomputer.com)

    Object storage has made proper archival backups for my company a little more manageable and more affordable.

    Each server creates incremental backups of the necessary data every 8 hours (os config files, selective filesystem data, database dumps, etc).

    From there the backup files are replicated into our backup cluster. The backup cluster then encrypts and replicates it all into both OVH's object storage and Backblaze's B2 object storage. The cluster only keeps the most recent 7 days on hand.

    In object storage, we keep 6 weeks or so. Total cost for ~28TB is only about $300/mo between the two copies.

  2. I hope they censor only citizens and not sites by KBrown · · Score: 1 · on The French Government Can Now Censor the Internet

    OVH is one of the largest hosting providers in the world. Censoring sites hosted in OVH could do some damage on France's economy because clients might want to move their sites to other countries..

  3. Re:So... by palegray.net · · Score: 2, Interesting · on The Night Sky In 800 Million Pixels

    Unfortunately, many hosting companies make bold claims about their capabilities without actually being able to deliver on those promises. In this case, the host appears to be ovh.com (judging by whois info on the IP), providing a dedicated server. Of course, this does leave open the possibility that the server is badly configured for traffic on this scale.
