DDoS protection for VPS
Hello let people
I am setting up a web app on a VPS with users in Kerala, India. There aren't many reliable vps providers in India, the only two i could find are DigitalOcean and Linode and i decided to go with DigitalOcean because its closer to the user base (Bangalore DC).
I wanted to know how i can mitigate DDoS attacks, since both of them dont have layer 4 protection.
The steps I am planning to take are Geo-blocking everyone out of India and rate limiting to around 10 rq/s, this seems enough for now as I am not expecting big DDoS attacks but still, is there any more precautions i should take?
btw does extra 30 ms latency really make a difference if not, i could go with Nexusbytes or ovh since they have ddos protection
thanks

if it is a web app, latency shouldn't be a huge deal. try an ovh vps, since they have good ddos protection.
however, why not just cloudflare to just hide your server ip?
OVH SG will be a good choice and what kind of web app it is?
