Google Cloud recently blocked a massive DDoSattack that surged to 46 million requests per second by using its Cloud Armor technology.
Google just reported that there was a massive attempt at shutting down one of its Cloud Armor customers, peaking at 46 million requests per second. That makes it the largest Layer 7 distributed denial of service attack ever reported, and Google’s infrastructure handled the surge in traffic.
Google Cloud Armor protects applications and websites from internet attacks of this sort regularly by using load-balancing techniques that keep web services running even in the face of these challenges. While Cloud Armor claims to support over a million queries per second, it managed to handle what would normally be a crushing burden of 46 million this time.
