If you are running an Apache server and are getting hit by httpd floods that overload your server, installing Nginx in front of it (nginxcp.com is an easy to use module for Cpanel) may be the option. Then you need to ensure the following modules are loaded:
FastCGI --> http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpFcgiModule
Limit Zone --> http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLimitZoneModule
Limit Conn --> http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLimitConnModule

Great prices and service! Truly is painless, professional and polite (That's their slogan).
I recently switched to AYK Solutions from Softlayer for my dedicated server requirements. I received a much better specification server at significantly reduced cost from what Softlayer could offer me, with many of the previously 'extra' features at Softlayer included in the base price offered by AYK. The support was second to none, and they were extremely helpful in transferring all of my old server accounts over for no additional fee whatsoever.
Great host, have tried many they're certainly a top choice for me. Premium bandwidth, great prices, 100% stable, and great support.
