Spring is in the air

It’s March and that fresh, clean Spring air is coaxing the buds on the trees to open up and cover the branches with soft, green spring leaves. That Spring air seems to have even blown through this month’s newsletter. At least, a crop of fresh, green updates, promos, and new releases are budding.

Premium .paris domains, long held dormant like winter plants, are now being released, we’re looking at new TLDs being added by ICANN to the root zone, Gandi is attending and hosting a flurry of events, you can upgrade your Simple Hosting instance to PHP 5.6 with one click and witness the lifecycle of a domain in one glance. We’ve also go some great new releases and promos this month, so don’t miss those calendars either.

1. Premium .paris domains released
A whole bunch of premium domains for generic terms in .paris like café.paris, brunch.paris or antiquites.paris that, starting 10 March will become available at the registrar of your choice. These domains are pure gold, and being premium domains they can come at a steep price—between €475.00 and €4,210.00 before tax. For more information, check out our post here: www.gandi.net/news/en/2016-03-02/7196-ah_.paris_in_the_spring_premium_domains_released/

2. Recently-Added TLDs to the Root
We took a look at the TLDs coming down the line that were just added to ICANN in the past month. We won’t necessary end up offering all of them, but we thought you’d at least like to know. Have a look at what we found here: www.gandi.net/news/en/2016-03-01/7124-recently-added_tlds_march_2016/

3. Gandi Events
This month we attended, are attending and even hosted a number of events, whether in Paris, San Francisco, Luxembourg, Taipei or beyond. You can read about what we saw, who we met, and what we learned in this post: www.gandi.net/news/en/2016-03-10/7259-gandi_events_march_2016/

4. Update: One-click upgrade to PHP 5.6
A one-click upgrade to PHP 5.6 for Simple Hosting instances is now available in Beta.
All you need to do is go to your instance’s control panel and click on the “Update” link.
This operation will move everything over to PHP 5.6 automatically, though you might experience some issues during the next few days as we still consider the feature to be in Beta. We also highly suggest checking our guide to learn more about the differences between versions and about the issues you might encounter, since you won't be able to rollback this update. Users of other types of PHP instances, such as PostgreSQL or MongoDB databases, unfortunately will still have to upgrade manually. Our documentation also includes instructions and examples to help with manually migrating your instances.

5. In-depth: The Lifecycle of a Domain
We’re also starting a new series of infographics exploring the mysterious recesses of domain name registration, hosting, the Internet as a whole. This month, we are delving into the life and death of a domain name: from the moment it is first registered and blinks into existence, to its
renewal, and then to the mysterious afterlife that lies beyond expiration. A picture is worth a thousand words, so before we spend too many of those words here, we should just recommend that you check out our visualization here: www.gandi.net/news/en/2016-03-04/7226-the_lifecycle_of_a_domain/

Поддержка PHP 7

На хостинге «Джино» теперь доступна для использования новейшая версия PHP — 7.0.

По сравнению с предыдущим релизом (5.6) PHP 7 обеспечивает значительный прирост производительности. Например, WordPress работает с новой версией до двух-трех раз быстрее.

Мы рекомендуем переход на PHP 7 всем пользователям (переключить версию можно в разделе «Настройки PHP» контрольной панели «Джино»), но после переключения необходимо убедиться в работоспособности всех сайтов и скриптов. В случае обнаружения проблем вы сможете вернуть предыдущую версию PHP.

OpenVZ VPS Packages now with Voxility DDoS Protection



NodeServ DDoS-Protection Now Available in Jacksonville Florida!
NodeServ sends promotional emails to customers past and present. Unsubscribe information is included at the end of this email.

NodeServ is happy to announce it now is offering DDoS protected OpenVZ VPS hosting.

With malicious DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks becoming so common, and with the impact from attacks becoming destructive to both hosts and customers, NodeServ decided to offer protection services. These attacks are growing in size and are regularly in the news and often blamed when online services are offline.

DDoS attacks work by sending lots of requests from many networks simulataneously. This effectively floods the server, upstream router or in severe instances the entire datacenter. Attacks can last for hours, days, weeks or even months depending on how determined the attackers are.

It doesn't matter if your hosting service is used for hosting your personal blog, a game server, chat server for your friends, your company website or for a large ecommerce site – downtime is devastating.

Special Offers on DDoS Protected OpenVZ
We are including two promotional packages with HUGE savings so you can try our DDoS protection. These are available for a limited and promotion will expire.



What is NodeServ DDoS-Protection?(Information about Voxility DDoS Protection)

NodeServ is using DDoS filtering protection from a proven leader – Voxility. With total network protection of 500Gbps, Voxility is both able to handle malicious attacks and reroute traffic across its global network should a failure occur.

We are connecting to Voxility via their filtering location in Miami. From NodeServ's Jacksonville location to Voxility's Miami location is just 10ms of latency. This low latency makes it possible to run any application successfully (audio, video, development servers, etc.). Below is a graph just showing how much and how big some attacks that were mitigated by our DDoS Protection.



How does NodeServ DDoS Protection Work?
One word: seamlessly.
New customer orders have the option of adding DDoS protection to their OpenVZ package for a monthly addon price of $3 per DDoS Filtered IP. These customers when provisioned will receive two IPv4 addresses. One will be a normal unprotected IP, the other will be the DDoS Protected IP. From our customer control panel customers can deactivate the public IP address should they want to or more advanced customers can manually configure their VPS to only use the protected IP address.

DDoS protection is automatic. When and if your server is under attack the activity will be detected and Voxility protection will automatically go between you and the attacker. The detection can take up to one minute to take effect and for the attack to stop.

Protection for Existing Customer Services
If you currently have an active service with NodeServ and would like to subscribe to our DDoS Protection you can! Please contact support and we will human-handle your service addon. This is a manual configuration process, so please allow up to 24 hours.

Special and dynamics rules was applied on all Level3 router and firewall ensuring 4.2 Tbps DDoS Protection for well know attacks, like DNS, NTP, SNMP, Chargen Amplifications and much more.

As second defense layer we had various sensors that analyze traffic and if an anomalies is found, redirect the IP to our filters. Filters are a cluster that can absorb up to 80Gbps of dirty packets. Traffic will be analyzed, cleaned and injected into the network. Our filters analyze in real-time any attack to guarantee enterprise grade protection in any condition, no matter if attack changes.

  • DDoS Protected IP: You can protect single ip address at only €9 /m. You will have access to our SeGuard Anomaly Panel. You will be able to monitor anomaly in real-time or create stats, report and much more. Any existing IP can be converted in DDoS Protected IP without downtime. Just open a ticket to our SOC department and we will do it. No changes needed at yout end.
  • Whole Server: You can protect entire server for only €49 /m, no matter how many ips you have on it. You will be able to monitor anomaly in real-time or create stats, report and much more. Any existing server with free protection can be converted in a DDoS Protected Server without downtime. Just open a ticket to our SOC department and we will do it. No changes needed in yout end.

Using GRE tunnels, we can divert traffic to our network for inspection, analysis and filtering to ensure high availability of your online business or project.
