Intent

I need it when

Implement zero-trust security and replace legacy VPN infrastructure

Cloudflare One (SASE platform) provides identity-aware zero-trust access to private applications, secure web gateway, email security, and network-as-a-service. This modernizes security architecture while retiring costly VPN deployments.

Modernize application architecture with serverless compute and edge deployment

Cloudflare Workers enables deployment of serverless functions to 330+ edge locations with no cold starts or region complexity. Combined with D1 databases, R2 storage, and KV key-value stores, developers can build and scale applications globally without managing infrastructure.

Ensure web applications remain available during traffic spikes or server outages

Cloudflare monitors network latency and server health at origin, automatically routing requests to the best available resource. Load balancing and failover capabilities keep applications online even when infrastructure fails or traffic overwhelms origin servers.

Protect websites and applications from DDoS attacks and security threats

Cloudflare provides L3/4 and L7 DDoS protection, Web Application Firewall (WAF), bot management, and API security. These services filter malicious traffic at the edge before it reaches origin infrastructure, reducing attack surface and improving security posture.

Accelerate website performance and reduce bandwidth costs globally

Cloudflare's CDN caches static and dynamic content in 335+ cities worldwide, serving content from edge locations closest to users. This reduces latency, improves Core Web Vitals, and eliminates expensive cloud egress fees through predictable, bundled bandwidth pricing.

Drop

Not a fit when

  • User needs a simple website builder with no technical infrastructure knowledge required
  • User operates entirely offline or requires on-premises-only solutions without cloud connectivity
  • User has minimal traffic and does not benefit from global CDN caching or DDoS protection
  • User requires a dedicated single-region hosting provider rather than a distributed edge network
  • User needs social media management or content creation tools unrelated to web infrastructure
