Ukraine’s ccTLD registry has moved its servers out of the country to avoid disruption due to the Russian invasion.
Hostmaster said that servers responsible for “the operability of the .ua domain” have been moved to other European countries, seemingly with the assistance of other registry operators.
The company’s technical operations were based in Kyiv, which is currently under threat from advancing Russian troops.
Hostmaster announced the news on Saturday, the third day of the invasion.
A day earlier, it said it had signed up to Cloudflare’s DDoS protection service to protect its two largest zones — .com.ua and .kiev.ua — from distributed denial of service attacks.
It had suffered one such attack earlier this month, before the invasion, with traffic at some points exceeding 150Gbps.
The company says it runs more than 550,000 .ua domains in total. This morning, all .ua web sites I tested from the UK were resolving normally.
