Network
Build on the world's fastest cloud network
Ship applications that feel instantaneous everywhere. Cloudflare's anycast network puts compute, storage, and security within <50 ms of 95% of Internet users — no knobs to tune, no infrastructure to babysit.
Low latency by default
Global resilience
Pay only for actual compute time
Proven network infrastructure, powering products at scale
The same end-to-end network stack behind Cloudflare's own products — battle-tested across billions of requests and millions of users daily. Build with the same primitives we use in production.
Realtime APIs and multiplayer games
High-traffic e-commerce
Startups
Built for global-scale applications
Everything you need to build, deploy, and scale network-optimized applications on Cloudflare's global infrastructure.
Anycast network (330+ cities)
One IP worldwide: traffic auto-lands at the closest edge for consistent low latency.
Argo smart routing
Dynamic, congestion-aware paths shave ~30% off median response time versus standard BGP routes.
Tiered & regional caching
Hot content stays near users while you control data-sovereignty boundaries.
Modern transport protocols
HTTP/3 & QUIC are enabled by default — no config, no extra cost.
Global load Balancing & failover
Sub-second health checks with instant failover keep requests flowing during incidents.
Workers runtime
Serverless functions start in <5 ms cold-start, run near the requester, and scale globally.
Latency & origin insights
Built-in analytics surface per-country, per-colo, and per-route performance — no extra agent needed.
…with the tools to simplify it
Deploy globally-distributed applications between meetings.
import { Hono } from 'hono' import { cors } from 'hono/cors' const app = new Hono() app.use('*', cors()) app.get('/', (c) => c.text('Hello from the edge!')) export default app
Smart routing included
Global load balancing for zero config
Edge-first architecture
Build with global performance
Deploy once, run fast everywhere — scale globally and handle traffic spikes with zero configuration.
