OVH down

Had some huge (10x) increase in ping times to Roubaix yesterday, but everything seems fine for me today. Firs time in 3 years I've noticed anything.

I've got servers in their Canadian datacenter and everything seems peachy. I'm guessing this is their French infrastructure. Even http://status.ovh.net/ doesn't load.

It is their french datacenter - we are affected, they're saying should be back in an hour.

Our servers in the BHS (Canada), SBG (France) and RBX (France) data centers are accessible.

It seems to be related to a BGP leak:

Link not working (down, too)

Remember kids, have DC failover to a second provider.

Hey,

Just out of curiosity do you have any provider recommendations?

I have my servers on OVH but have been looking for a second provider/backup but cant seem to find any with affordable bandwidth (My services experience heavy traffic)

Thanks!

Are you in a OVH France or OVH Canada location?

What sort of latency can you tolerate? [e.g. Can you go from OVH Canada to Kansas City without it impacting your setup? Or France to Germany? Or do you need something closer?]

I am currently in OVH Canada,

90% of my customers are US customers with a large percentage on the East coast.

Kansas City would actually be very ideal, nothing more West than that though.

Since you want high bandwidth, OVH level prices/hardware/etc.

Reliable site is noticeably better but costs more. The others are Kimsufi/SoYouStart kind of providers. [e.g. the lower end OVH brands]

Thanks again for your help you have helped me tons!
