Nice. Cloudflare has had no competition for too long.
- mike_j 9y agoDyndns?
- tssva 9y agoNo competition? There are many CDN and DDOS protection services. Cloudflare's own copy claims they have 35% of the market which indicates there is certainly competition out there.
- viraptor 9y agoHave you actually used them? I only have sample of n=3, but CloudFlare does some things much better than others.
- ktta 9y agoCloudflare is 'dominating' because of their free tier. There are other services actual companies use. Fastly, Akamai, AWS Cloudfront, CacheFly and more.
- notamy 9y agoCF having that free tier is a HUGE reason me and people I know stick with it. None of us want to have to throw money at a CF-like service for a low-traffic site, or for an MVP, or... At some point, it definitely becomes worth it, but Cloudflare's free tier is a HUGE boon early on imho.

- manigandham 9y agoThey also provide incredible value at the pro and business tiers while other providers cost thousands for less features. Fastly was good for technical setups but Cloudflare Workers blows away Varnish VCL config.
