Spaces CDN DoS protection, bandwidth and limits

Posted on November 9, 2022

Hello!

I was thinking in using Spaces as the object storage for a side proejct, and I have some questions about it:

  • Does DO Spaces have any kind of DoS protection against bots calling massively the assets stored there? I suppose the edge nodes cache will work for that, but just to be sure.

  • When using the CDN feature, does the bandwifth count double? One for the spaces <-> cdn transfer and another time for cdn <-> user?

If that is it, using the CDN with cache will not prevent you from huge charges due to bad bots, which can easily kill a side project.

  • I have read that there are some req/s limit on Spaces, what are those? Do them apply to CDN too?

Thanks
