A DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack is a malicious attempt to overwhelm a server with traffic, making it unavailable to legitimate users. A regular server issue, on the other hand, is a problem with the server's hardware, software, or configuration that causes performance problems or downtime. DDoS attacks are intentionally disruptive, while server issues are unintentional.
