Cloudflare does have the ability to let you define CNAMES for your site and manage those in your own DNS outside of Cloudflare. I believe it is in limited beta right now but we are testing it and it works great.
Contact them for more details.
- krmmalik 15y agoIm a little hazy on my DNS knowledge. I understand upto zone file, dns and A records. Haven't quite understood how i would achieve this with a CNAME? _ i've tried to understand many times what CNAME's are but never got my head around it. Would you mind elaborating a little? I did contact them about a month ago, and explained the problem and they just told me it wasnt possible at this moment in time(?)
- jackwagon 15y agoA CNAME points a name to another name. In the case of Cloudflare, Google, or others, they need to know what CNAME you are using (say, www.example.com CNAME some.proxyservice.com) so they can map the request to your content.
- damoncloudflare 15y agoWe actually have the backend all built for this. It is just a matter of doing just a little bit more testing before releasing it into the wild. We've used a handful of beta testers to help us identify potential problems.
