No AI crawl without compensation! ✊
Cloudflare is a leading edge network services provider that offers a wide range of solutions to enhance the security, performance, and reliability of websites and applications. With its global network infrastructure and advanced technologies, Cloudflare empowers businesses to build a faster, more secure, and resilient online presence.
Cloudflare Workers KV provides lightning-fast key-value storage ($0.50/GB-month) for caching crawled content. R2 object storage ($0.015/GB-month) stores larger datasets without egress fees. D1 serverless SQL ($0.75/GB-month) enables structured data queries.
Free tier supports 100,000 requests/day for testing. Paid tier scales automatically with transparent per-request and per-CPU-millisecond pricing. No infrastructure provisioning needed; Cloudflare handles all scaling automatically.
Cloudflare Workers enables deployment to 335+ cities instantly with no cold starts or region selection. Crawling code executes close to users and data, reducing latency. Pay only for actual CPU milliseconds used during crawling, not idle time.
Workers Logs ($0.60 per million events) and Workers Analytics Engine ($0.25 per million data points written) provide observability. Developers can track crawl success rates, latency, and errors from a single dashboard.
Cloudflare's platform includes unmetered DDoS protection, WAF, and bot management built into every tier. Crawling requests benefit from the same security infrastructure protecting 20% of the web's traffic.
