It's a service that transforms subdomains to paths.
E.g.:
blog.example.com -> example.com/blog
api.example.com -> example.com/api
docs.example.com -> example.com/docs
... and so on. Supposedly for SEO benefit, but there's the obvious security risk of running all traffic through a third-party.

- theoctopus 9y agoThey seem to work in similar ways, but Cloudflare focuses on speed and security, this just seems to focus on SEO. The security risk is in theory the same, but I'd argue that the risk from Cloudflare is lower as they're a well established service used by major companies.
