How this CTO built a business that sells millions of dollars a day with the help of Schematical Today, I am honored to present to you one of my happy customers, Ben Raboine, CTO of Enthusiast Enterprises At some point, you likely have seen vehicles proudly displaying the logo of one of the brands he and his team created. I was lucky enough to get a call from Ben back in 2016 when they were still a tiny startup and have been a part of the ride ever since helping to ensure their server infrastructure scales up in a cost-effective and secure manner. It’s been an amazing journey so far, but it's not over yet. Please enjoy this short video of Ben talking about his experience working with me over the years.

@FossDT @EddCoates This is brilliant. I was just talking to a coworker about building something similar.

I am so fucking sick of my website getting scraped. Millions of requests per minute, somehow designed to bypass all my security rules, choking the site until it completely stops loading. If I were paying for bandwidth, it would cost me a fortune. How is this still legal?

@EddCoates What is the user agent? Just generic browsers getting rotated or an actual bot agent? How about the IP addresses, do they rotate through? I've had to deal with a lot of DDoS. Finding the pattern is a bastard but once you do you should be able to slow them down at least.
