Cloudflare

Cloudflare is one of the most widely adopted cloud platforms that enhances the security, performance, and reliability of applications and websites. Its solutions are used by both small businesses and global enterprises, combining advanced protection mechanisms with optimization of online services. When evaluating such software, the three most important features to focus on are:  

Performance and speed of the global network (CDN and edge servers)  
  • A vast, globally distributed network delivers content from the nearest node, reducing latency.  
  • Optimizations such as Brotli compression, HTML/CSS/JS minification, and intelligent caching accelerate page loading.  

Comprehensive protection and security (DDoS, WAF, DNS)  

  • The Web Application Firewall (WAF) safeguards against application-layer attacks.  
  • Robust DDoS protection and a fast, secure DNS with DNSSEC support ensure service reliability and safety.  

Innovation and flexibility (Serverless, AI, developer tools)  
  • Cloudflare Workers enable running code at the network edge (edge computing). 
  • Modern AI tools and bot protection strengthen automation and security. 
  • Intuitive management and a broad API facilitate seamless integration with existing infrastructure.  

Why I Chose Cloudflare   

I chose Cloudflare because it combines three key aspects: security, performance, and flexibility. With its global CDN infrastructure, my applications and websites are delivered faster to users regardless of their geographic location. Advanced protection mechanisms, such as the Web Application Firewall (WAF), DDoS mitigation, and secure DNS, ensure a high level of security and service continuity. Furthermore, modern features — including Cloudflare Workers and AI-driven solutions — provide the flexibility to develop and scale the environment according to current needs, while maintaining simple and transparent management.
