This is true for pretty much any VPS-only hoster, they all have well defined ranges and tons of targets to attack. I see thousands of attempts a day at Linode and hundreds at Leaseweb (dedi and VPSes) and DO. It's just part of doing business.

It's certainly true for dedicated-only hosters too.

I guess I should have said 'personal server', not like AWS or Google's Cloud platforms.
