CloudFlare run over 23 Data Centers from around the globe. Once you have joined up with CloudFlare your website traffic will start being routed to the nearest CloudFlare enabled Data Center
When your website traffic is routed through CloudFlare’s servers your website is analyzed and the static portions of your website are cached on CloudFlare’s servers typically for less than 2 hours before they are rechecked for updates again. Moving these parts of the site to a closer location for your site visitors the overall performance of your site improves significantly.
This same technology helps save money and decreases loads on servers storing your website. This means your site can run faster and more efficiently than ever. As an average CloudFlare customers see a 60% decrease in bandwidth usage and typically a load time of the pages on a website drop by around 50%. This in turn means happier site visitors.
Over the course of 2011, CloudFlare identified a 700% increase in the number of distributed denial of service attacks (DDoS) we track on the Internet. As attacks like these increase, CloudFlare is stepping up to protect sites.
CloudFlare’s security systems offer a board range of protection against attacks such as DDoS, hacking or spam submitted to a blog or comment form. The benefit of CloudFlare’s security systems is that the system gets smarter as more sites join the CloudFlare network.
As a result of such measures CloudFlare ensures good traffic gets through to your site and the bad traffic is stopped.
