One of the sites I host on Amazon Lightsail recently became victim of a DDoS attack. I've been able to fend it off using Cloudflare's "I'm under attack" mode.
I'm wondering if load balancing would have help deal with the attack. Should I create a load balancer in Amazon Lightsail and attach it to all my instances? Is that allowed? Will that help deal with DDoS attacks?
And as for cost - I see it's US$18 monthly. Is that for each instance the load balancer is associated with?
yes it can as it would attempt to distribute the load
