Cloudflare is a global edge network that boosts performance and security for websites, web applications, and APIs. We use Cloudflare to accelerate traffic, block attacks, and add smart edge logic, without constantly changing or redeploying your application code.
Cloudflare was founded in 2009 by Matthew Prince, Lee Holloway, and Michelle Zatlyn. Cloudflare is a network and security platform that acts as a proxy between users and your origin servers.
It delivers services such as CDN, DDoS protection, Web Application Firewall, DNS, caching, Workers, and advanced rulesets. All traffic flows through Cloudflare’s global edge, where performance optimisations and security measures are applied before requests ever reach your infrastructure.
This approach allows you to improve speed, reduce risk, and manage security and performance policies centrally, without tying them to individual applications or hosting environments.
Cloudflare is used to make websites, webshops, APIs, and portals faster, more secure, and more reliable. It lets you cache static assets, manage TLS, filter bots, apply rate limiting, and run custom logic at the edge using Workers.
Cloudflare also supports DNS management, zero trust access, and the protection of internal services from external exposure. Especially in environments with multiple applications, locations, and teams, Cloudflare provides a single, central layer to control performance and security policies consistently and at scale.
At Omines, we go beyond simply switching on Cloudflare. We configure it strategically. From smart caching and security rules to combining WAF, redirects, and Workers with your existing application logic, we align DNS, certificates, and routing with your architecture.
Where others stop at basic CDN setup, we move into complex multi origin scenarios, advanced API protection, and automation. The result is Cloudflare as a strategic layer around your platforms, not just a quick fix for static assets.
