At 00:57 UTC, Servd's US-EAST-1 cluster received a large DDoS attack which lasted 30 seconds. At which point our Cloudflare-backed DDoS protections activated and ended the attack. In the interim, we saw elevated 502 responses as our infrastructure quickly scaled up to handle the load. Apologies for any interruptions to your projects. For those looking to insulate themselves from such attacks we recommend employing [Servd's Private Load Balancer addon](https://servd.host/docs/private-load-balancer-addon).
