Cloudflare

Global edge network for security, performance, and reliability.

Cloudflare operates one of the world's largest edge networks, spanning 310+ cities across 120 countries. Originally known for DDoS protection and CDN services, Cloudflare has evolved into a full cloud platform with Workers (edge compute), Pages (static hosting), R2 (object storage), and D1 (edge database).

We use Cloudflare for DNS management, CDN delivery, DDoS protection, and edge computing across virtually all our projects. Cloudflare's free tier provides essential security and performance improvements, and its Workers platform enables edge-first architectures. Cloudflare Pages has become our go-to for hosting static and JAMstack sites, offering unlimited bandwidth on the free tier with blazing-fast global delivery.

What we use it for

  • CDN and global content delivery
  • DDoS protection and WAF security
  • DNS management with instant propagation
  • Edge computing with Workers
  • Static site hosting with Pages
  • Image optimization and resizing

Questions we get asked

Is Cloudflare free?
Cloudflare's free plan includes DNS, CDN, basic DDoS protection, and SSL. Workers and Pages also have generous free tiers. Paid plans start at $20/month for additional WAF rules and analytics.
Does Cloudflare improve website speed?
Yes, significantly. Cloudflare's CDN caches content at 310+ locations, reducing load times by 30-60%. Additional features like image optimization, minification, and HTTP/3 further improve performance.
Can Cloudflare protect against DDoS attacks?
Yes. Cloudflare provides unmetered DDoS protection on all plans, including the free tier. They have mitigated some of the largest attacks in internet history.
Cloudflare vs AWS CloudFront?
Cloudflare is simpler to set up, has a generous free tier, and includes security features. CloudFront integrates better with AWS services. We often use Cloudflare in front of AWS origin servers for the best of both.
