Backup tunnel: how to survive a VPS outage without losing clients

Vast Sale editorial, 32 min

The provider announced maintenance: a server reboot, thirty to forty minutes. The problem was that all our VPS sat in the same data centre and rebooted at the same time. For a host in Russia that is not a pause but a broken tunnel on every machine at once.

We set up a backup VPS with another provider in another country and taught the rigs to jump to it automatically. Below: what happens to the reliability score, why the usual advice does not work, and a ready script that switches over and rolls back on its own.
