Cloudflare is well known for offering best-in-class CDN, proxy, and network security services. However, they also provide an entire ecosystem of compute and data services that can power sophisticated software solutions. At Backpine Labs, we believe that Cloudflare's developer platform is hands down the best cloud provider for the vast majority of software development needs.

Cloudflare's compute and data products work seamlessly together. This integration provides an excellent developer experience, enabling developers to build solutions faster.
Cloudflare's compute and data offerings rival or outright beat the prices of large cloud providers like AWS and Azure. When compared to other serverless compute providers such as Vercel and Netlify, Cloudflare is often 2–10 times cheaper.
Cloudflare utilizes its global edge network to dynamically route requests to the nearest compute or data node. This means your code is within approximately 50 ms of 90% of the world's population, ensuring rapid response times and an exceptional user experience, no matter where your users are located.
Out of the box, all solutions built on Cloudflare come with DDoS and network protection. This robust security framework not only safeguards your applications from common threats but also includes features like Web Application Firewalls (WAF), SSL/TLS encryption, and automatic updates, ensuring your services are always protected against emerging vulnerabilities.
