CLOUDFLARE MAKES EVERY INTERNET APPLICATION MORE PROGRAMMABLE

KUALA LUMPUR, May 11 (Bernama) -- Cloudflare Inc, the security, performance, and reliability company helping to build a better Internet, has announced Cloudflare for Platforms, a new suite of tools that allows organisations to transform any application into a programmable platform for developers to build on.

Cloudflare for Platforms allows organisations to easily transform any fixed application – ranging from ecommerce solutions to chat apps and everything in between – so developers can build custom functionality using the latest open API standards, without relying on costly external servers to manage complex APIs.

With Cloudflare for Platforms, any organisation will be able to empower users to program an application the way they want and need it to perform without costly servers, massive developer resources, or external consultants.

“Five years ago, Cloudflare built our serverless computing platform, Cloudflare Workers, to give all of our customers the ability to program the way Cloudflare worked for themselves,” said Matthew Prince, co-founder and CEO of Cloudflare in a statement.

“Cloudflare Workers is one of the fastest and most widely adopted edge computing products that provides limitless possibilities for our customers. Now, we’re taking this formula and helping any organisation do the same, using the scale, speed, and flexibility of Cloudflare’s global network.”

Cloudflare for Platforms is built on Cloudflare Workers, a serverless solution that allows developers to deploy code instantly across Cloudflare’s global network for exceptional performance, reliability, and scale.

Additionally, Cloudflare is partnering with leading organisations to create new API standards for developers that will form the foundation of how applications can be built in the future to take advantage of the scale and flexibility of edge computing.

Now, Cloudflare will enable any product to become a platform, by allowing its developers to use Cloudflare’s fast, scalable, and secure environment; quickly and easily view all of their code; and, get insights from powerful analytics, among others.
