Cloudflare

Cloudflare helps me to make my websites and my Open-Source projects more secure and with no extra cost. It provide me a free SSL for each domain, and it protects me against bots that use my hosting bandwidth. With Cloudflare I have an overview of all my domains in one page. I can analyze daily the report of bad users and I can immediately take action on those IP address ranges. Also, I use the Cloudflare cache to speed up my website with the use of a Content delivery network.

In our organization, Cloudflare plays a pivotal role in addressing critical business challenges. Specifically, we employ Cloudflare's Web Application Firewall (WAF) to enhance web application security. This solution effectively protects against cyber threats like DDoS attacks, SQL injection, and cross-site scripting. By customizing security rules and utilizing real-time threat intelligence, Cloudflare's WAF ensures a proactive defense for our web applications, aligning with our overarching goal of fortifying our online presence.

I highly recommend Cloudflare to organizations seeking a robust and developer-friendly platform for their AI endeavors.

We are leveraging cloudflare to add a layer of security on our dev and preview environments. We also use it to securely access cloud based code repository directly via VSCode. We take security very seriously and Cloudflare helps us get that extra level of comfort and security on top of our vast infrastructure.

If you aren't using Cloudflare, you should be. Cloudflare is one of the few companies that seem to think of the solution before you even know it is a problem.
We use Cloudflare to manage our DNS, CDN our web traffic, be a WAP for our applications, manage our DMARC records, provide DDOS protection, and are looking into their Zero Trust network tunnels and we are just barely scratching the surface of their offerings. Their tools are always well thought out, the user interfaces intuitive, and the functionality just works. They are constantly advancing their offerings both existing and expanding in logical directions. Other IT providers should definitely be looking to model their business practices after a company like Cloudflare.

In our organization, we leverage cloudflare to optimize the performance and fortify the security of our online strcuture. Like for example bots or injection. We also use CDN (Content delivery Network) to accelerates website loading times by caching content across its global network ensuring a seamless use experience. The robust DDos protection shields our POC servers from malicious attacks and preserving service continuly. We love the service that Cloud flare provide use. And we still using it to protect our POC's.

Ease of use, affordability, security, performance: pick four.

Started using Cloudflare for web performance, security improvements, and DDoS protection. Have since used its incredibly flexible Workers platform [the web's ultimate Swiss Army knife], at-cost domain name registration, 1.1.1.1 and WARP, and am now implementing my first enterprise Magic-WAN and Zero Trust rollout.

I love the Cloudflare products and use them for all my professional and personal domains and have recommended and implemented them time and time again for colleagues, friends and clients of mine over the past 8-10 years. The security that is included, the caching features and the vast amount of configurable options are great!

1. Transform classic web servers, backend servers into Cloudflare Pages and Workers
2. Cloudflare CDN, DDOS Application solutions
3. PoC AI engines
4. PoC Serverless DB D1, R2, KV
5. Build JAMstack and serverless solutions to sell B2B, D2C products

Since integrating Cloudflare for image optimization and storage, we've seen remarkable improvements in our website's performance. Cloudflare's resizing, compression, and automatic format conversion capabilities have significantly enhanced page load times while maintaining image quality. This has not only improved our user experience but also reduced our bandwidth and storage costs.

In the pages department, we needed a quick and easy way to sho static HTML website.

Cloudflare is used in our organization to provide security by protecting Internet properties from malicious activity like DDoS attacks, malicious bots, and other nefarious intrusions. It also allows website owners to easily insert applications into their websites without needing to be a developer. Cloudflare saves CPU resources and bandwidth by serving the static content directly from global data centers. Mirage automatically optimizes image loading through virtualized and lazyloaded images. Cloudflare is also used as a CDN to cache and deliver our site's static resources quickly, for public DNS, SSL acceleration, WAF and DDoS/bot protection, and fast network routing. Cloudflare helps us stay fast, redundant, and protected. We also use Cloudflare logging for analytics.

We use multiple CloudFlare products in our organization.
Zerotrust: This helps us keep secure on the public network. As we are working remotely for the last 2 years, the Zerotrust solution provided by Zlousflare has been very useful in making sure the entire organization is in secure network.
We also use Cloudflare's WAF for our website and use their load balancer as well.
We are starting using their CDN as well in near future

We currently use Cloudflare to protect our applications against web attacks and also to create access caching.

Cloudflare has eliminated so many hits on our firewall since moving to their tunnels. We can access our servers remotely without exposing them to the outside world. This has saved us so many headaches knowing our data, network, and servers are safe behind our firewall. I highly recommend Cloudflare for small businesses.

We are new to cloudflare and have been with within our cybersecurity teams to understand the product a bit more, mostly in the areas of domain management services. We manage our infrastructure on Azure and need to identify the solution that will work seamlessly. We are also looking into other capabilities within this product.

Factually after using Cloudflare for our internet facing website for almost 3-4 years we were made aware on the other offerings from the company. Since then we are consolidating our security solutions and there is no looking back. They have a good number of very agile pre sales & sales professionals followed with some really cool delivery and deployment teams closing it all out with great support services, Cloudflare is highly recommended!

I am working as solutions architect for system integrator company and had successfully offer, deploy and manage cloudflare solutions to some of our customers.
These are some of business problems that has been addressed by using cloudflare product:
1. Content Delivery
2. Web Security Threat

3. Website Performance


The scope of these use case are :
1. CDN
2. WAF & Anti DDoS
3. Web Optimization

We have recently implemented CF after moving away from Zscaler. Within our company it is used for firewalls as well as content filtering for all browser traffic when working from the office, or anywhere else in the world with an internet connection. This is currently rolled out to users in multiple countries using laptops, and we make use of the WARP client. It appears to run much smoother and no deterioration in bandwidth or speed has been noticed. The dashboards are straight forward and easy to use and navigate.

We use Cloudflare DNS to manage many sites with page rules for redirects, caching static content before it reaches our backend, Bot/DDoS mitigation, web analytics, and most recently as a proxy for our web app's API. Analytics are non-intrusive and tend not to be blocked by clients whereas Google Analytics are mostly blocked by our audience. We are exploring Pages and Workers for deploying a web app created in SvelteKit.

Cloudflare is a complex product offering, but for us it primarily addresses a whole bunch of security issues (WAF, DDoS protection, bot protection, endpoint protection etc) as well as web asset delivery (CDN) and the ability to knit together complicated systems, often with legacy components.

Pipefy is a SaaS that runs on AWS + Kubernetes but relies on Cloudflare for Proxy, CDN, WAF, rate limiter, advanced security features and others.

Cloudflare addresses Pipefy a well-defined cache system with several features to improve the performance of the applications. This is the main focus + excellent reliability and stability.

We use Cloudflare services to assist with monitoring and securing web traffic to key component systems to ensure our end user experience a fast connection without having to sacrifice security of our systems. Network traffic control and insights allow us to view possible threats and remediate them before they become an issue.
