Abstract
Denial of service attack mitigation based on compute node failures is described herein. In an example, a system can include a first point of presence (POP) that is located in a first region and a server that is located in a second region. The system can also include a first compute node that is located in the first region and communicatively coupled with the first POP or that is located in the second region and communicatively coupled with the server and has a smaller capacity to handle requests than each of the POP and the server. The first compute node is configured to receive a request of the POP indicating a network address of the server, determine data to send the request along a network path to the server, and send the request along the network path based on the data.
