Cloudflare is a global connectivity cloud providing integrated networking, security, and developer platform services from a single, programmable edge network. Its Developer Platform — centered on Cloudflare Workers, R2, D1, and Workers AI — enables teams to build and deploy serverless and AI-powered applications across 330+ global PoPs without managing infrastructure. The same network simultaneously delivers enterprise-grade DDoS mitigation, WAF, bot protection, Zero Trust access (SASE/Cloudflare One), and CDN performance — making Cloudflare distinct from pure-PaaS competitors by embedding security and performance as structural properties of the compute layer itself.
