[Koha] Slowness & outages

[Chris Davis]

Dear Colleagues,

My library consortium is hosted by ByWater Solutions and during the last 
seven days, several times Koha has been slow and then there's an outage 
for thirty to sixty minutes then things are fine for a while, then 
there's more slowness and outage. ByWater is addressing these issues, 
but I want to know if anyone else's sites or clients are having issues 
like these?

I am also trying to get educated on modern internet threats and causes 
for issues like this. ByWater told us that the cause of these issues are 
the many, many AI bots that are crawling our site and ByWater has put 
our site behind CloudFlare for protection. I also know that at 
https://status.bywatersolutions.com, ByWater mentioned that their 
upstream provider have had issues with SSL errors and major data packet 
loss.

Thank you,
