No, OVH has DDoS protection built into their service, and it's free, and your connections will not get dropped. I moved to OVH after getting a few DDoS attacks, and since then there have been no problems. I've had a few emails from OVH notifying me about attacks in progress and that they are automatically mitigating it. When it happens, it has zero effect on our service.

Thnak you . I did not know this. I would love to hear more about it -- is this protecion available for their VPS or Public cloud ? I already have stringent firewall rules for all VMs in my ansible roles (I can port over my stuff from one cloud to next as my deployment is based on asible). what else do I need to do to protect my servers?

All their services come with DDoS protection.
