Looking for Oceania VPS/VDS/Dedicated
Hi all, I'm running a couple of game servers and I'm looking to migrate to a provider with proper DDoS protection.
I am looking at OVHcloud at the moment but want to see what else is out there before I pull the trigger.
Number of Cores: 4 (decent single-core performance matters. Game server's single-thread heavy; current box is EPYC Milan and handles it well)
RAM: 8 GB (would consider 6 GB)
Disk Space: 60 - 100GB
Disk Type: SSD/NVMe
Bandwidth: 2–4 TB/month is plenty
Port Speed: 1 Gbps
DDoS Protection: Yes, always-on or auto-triggered filtering of UDP reflection/amplification floods; game-server-aware protection (like OVH's/Path/GSL) is a big plus. Null-routing my IP when attacked is not acceptable. Please describe what your mitigation actually does for UDP game traffic.
Number of IPs: 1 IPv4
Location: Sydney, Australia
Budget: Up to $20-40/month USD. Flexible for genuinely good game-focused DDoS protection
Billing period: Monthly preferred; would do Quarterly or Yearly for a meaningful discount once I've verified the mitigation holds up

Going to be a pretty hard ask for AU/NZ for that price range with the expectations of inbound DDOS attacks as well. I thnk your best bet would be to go with OVH (AU) for something like this
@onidel for Australia
OVH is your choice for game servers
Any dedi deals coming up zappie?
Thank you guys. Settled on OVH.
I got one single lonely dedi in stock which needs a new owner. Perhaps you're interesting in adopting the little thing?

CPU: E3-1270v5 (3.60 GHz Base)

OVH ended up with shitty DDoS protection on KS AU servers. Upping my budget up to $60 USD.
