- MichaelGG 9y agoHow? Cloudflare doesn't host (and makes a big deal of that point); the actual app backends need to be hosted somewhere. They partner with Google (connectivity between CF and GCP), which is in the same business as AWS. A more likely reason is AWS's own anti-DDoS offering, AWS Shield.
- tyingq 9y agoMaybe CF is a little tired of being the workaround for AWS egress charges too.
- MichaelGG 9y agoAgain, why would that apply just to AWS? Being a "workaround" would apply to anyone offloading bandwidth - Azure, GCP, and AWS have similar pricing.
- tyingq 9y agoIt applies mostly to AWS because of their respective marketshare in that space. Even more so specifically considering the S3 service.
