How to protect yourself from popadalov when using hosting with pay-per-used resources?
I'm thinking of switching from classic PHP shared hosting to a more modern and universal cloud hosting in order to get rid of the restriction on the choice of language - I want to be able to experiment with Node.JS, Go, Elexir, Rust, Scala, etc. (it is clear that you can experiment on the localhost, but that's not the point). But there are two questions that concern me vividly in this context: how to protect yourself from attacks and how not to get into money in case of a sudden habraeffect? As far as I understand, shared hosting administrators take these problems upon themselves: firstly, they set up PHP, the web server and OS in a safe way and regularly install updates, and secondly, they usually do not require additional money during sudden traffic peaks. In the case of cloud VPS, I am afraid that I myself will have to delve into the intricacies of secure administration (not that so that I would be against it, it's interesting, just not all at once) and that in the event of a habraeffect or a DDoS attack, I will then be billed a million dollars for overspending resources. Please share your experience and thoughts on these issues. Thanks in advance.

Hosting for resources in 90% of cases is more expensive than VDS, everything is calculated there.
Now VDS are such that the hoster will put everything there for you - you will go in as in a regular shared one, only if you want you will have opportunities, try to score 100% on the day the VDS starts))
Set limits on withdrawals.
For example, Azure has it.
However, the use of such PaaS solutions will in itself be 10 times more expensive than regular servers. Pay for flexibility.
set limits on resources or on the amount of money, or make alerts to the mail if you have spent more than 1000 bucks, for example.
any seller has one of these features where the payment goes for resources.
