Your AI bill is out of control. Cloudflare can fix it now.

Jun 5, 2026 By Ming Lu In Cloudflare
There isn't a CIO on the planet not worried about AI spend right now. CFOs are increasingly nervous, too. For fear of falling behind, many companies have pushed their employees to use AI as aggressively as possible. The edict was clear: "Move fast, we'll figure out the bill later." And for the most part, it worked: AI has been genuinely transformational for the teams that leaned in. But the costs are real: we’ve heard countless horror stories of huge bills and painful overages on token spend.

When DNSSEC goes wrong: how we responded to the .de TLD outage

May 6, 2026 By Sebastiaan Neuteboom In Cloudflare
On May 5, 2026, at roughly 19:30 UTC, DENIC, the registry operator for the.de country-code top-level domain (TLD), started publishing incorrect DNSSEC signatures for the.de zone. Any validating DNS resolver receiving these signatures was required by the DNSSEC specification to reject them and return SERVFAIL to clients, including 1.1.1.1, the public DNS resolver operated by Cloudflare.

How Cloudflare Got 2x Faster Servers With Less Cache

Apr 30, 2026 By Cloudflare In Cloudflare
In this episode of This Week in NET, JQ Lau and Victor Hwang from our Network & Infrastructure Strategy team walk us through Cloudflare's 13th generation of servers — the machines that power a significant part of the internet across 330+ cities worldwide. The Gen 13 program doubled compute density by jumping from 96 to 192 cores, but that came with an 83% drop in L3 cache. The team explains how a bold hardware bet, combined with Cloudflare's FL2 Rust-based software rewrite, turned that trade-off into a win across throughput, latency, and power efficiency.

Apr 30, 2026 By Sharon Goldberg In Cloudflare
While more than two-thirds of human-generated TLS traffic to Cloudflare is already protected by post-quantum cryptography, the world of site-to-site networking has been a different story. For years, the IPsec community remained caught between the high bar of Internet-scale interoperability and the niche requirements of specialized hardware. That gap is now closing.
