Does it look good? I posted this but still getting the same error.

It loaded after a few minutes. Thank you!

Uu007 is there a s3 compliant tool to transfer r2 objects from 1 account to another?

KarewOP•1/11/23, 6:45 AM

Rclone is awesome https://rclone.org

kian•1/11/23, 6:46 AM

Yeah, rclonerclone is the way to go - CopyObject can't do cross-account so that's ruled out.

KarewOP•1/11/23, 7:43 AM

You can also copy between two remote accounts

KarewOP•1/11/23, 7:43 AM

It uses the computer running rclone as an intermediary

KarewOP•1/12/23, 9:42 PM

Page Rules are the old system, use Cache Rules

Erisa•1/12/23, 9:43 PM

page rules are the old way, cache rules are the new way
both will work functionally the same

Unsmart•1/12/23, 9:56 PM

page rules will eventually go away afaik so you should use cache rules

Erisa•1/12/23, 9:57 PM

tbh yeah its good to get used to cache rules earlier rather than later

Unsmart•1/12/23, 10:03 PM

Not sure if they have any documentation about how they evict stuff but if I had to assume its a very basic least used gets thrown out first with some added multiplier for the plan level you are on.

They will respect the edge cache ttl as far as not storing it longer than what you set but it can get evicted before that time is reached

Sskaboy007 so no practical differences

KarewOP•1/12/23, 10:04 PM

The new rules are way more powerful. You can construct really complex expression and check headers/IPs/requests and stuff to see if rules apply. Page Rules only pattern match on the URL

Hello, R2 is/was supposed to be a globally replicated, & locally distributed object store, but from my testing, only files uploaded in a region are returned from the same region, of which I believe you have 3? Singapore, Europe (London?), USA (Virginia).

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 4:19 AM

I don't seem to be seeing this "Globally distributed and replicated object store" we are paying for.

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 4:20 AM

IE: User in Asia uploads to Singapore, object replicated to all other zones, and user in EU downloads from EU storage zone.

That doesn't currently seem to be the case, user uploads in Singapore (Asia), user in EU downloads that object and it is downloaded from Singapore Object Storage region.

Is Cloudflare R2 actually distributing objects?

Last year I made a post on this forum displaying that R2 does in fact NOT distribute to multiple regions, at that time the product was still in beta. Now the product is not in Beta & is being billed/sold as workable. But I haven’t seen any difference in the distribution or speeds. Use a VPN to USA, files uploaded & delivered from USA, use a VP...

Unsmart•1/13/23, 4:25 AM

It will eventually have replication but at the moment it's one region. Afaik it doesn't state on any docs or the dashboard that it is replicated so if you see that somewhere let us know so we can report it

UUnsmart It will eventually have replication but at the moment it's one region. Afaik it ...

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 4:27 AM

Right, probably the wording "Globally distributed", the blogs saying the mission is to be "Globally replicated". I mean everyone thought/knows that the R2 product was upload in one place, replicate to multiple regions.

Is there any idea when this will actually be part of the product?

Unsmart•1/13/23, 4:28 AM

It will happen eventually that's all we know

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 4:31 AM

Be great for a team member to provide an answer, thus why I am here. So will wait to see if they're able to provide an answer.

KarewOP•1/13/23, 4:33 AM

The best you're going to get is that it's announced, it's planned, and soontm

for the time

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 6:38 AM

That's disappointing to hear, I thought global replication was one of its main selling points, there are object storage offerings 1/3rd the cost that offer free egress, without naming them, they're also part of a bandwidth alliance with Cloudflare or other CDN's. And one has many zones (12), including for example Australia, France, Germany, Brazil etc to name a few of the many they offer. Whilst cloudflare has 3 maybe 4, for 3x the price.

Anyway, sure would be good to have the team say if that feature is definitely coming or not.

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 8:16 AM

Also, a Cloudflare developer said today that R2 + CDN, means the CDN is free as R2 is paid. If for example we transcode video into R2, push to cloudflare CDN and deliver, is it actually, free?

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 8:16 AM

KarewOP•1/13/23, 8:19 AM

The CDN is always free. R2 allows you to store and serve any file types through the CDN/cache. Normally you can only store reasonable website content in the cache and not stuff like massive files or videos, but because you pay for the R2 storage, it's allowed.

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 8:22 AM

Very nice

KarewOP•1/13/23, 8:23 AM

There's no egress fees. You pay for R2 space and API operations. However, if you hit the cache it doesn't access R2, so you don't get charged an operation if the file is in the cache.

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 8:26 AM

then my distributed question literally doesnt really matter than, nice

KarewOP•1/13/23, 8:27 AM

Yeah, where your R2 bucket is located matters more for governance, uploads, and latency when doing R2 operations. For end users just fetching files, it doesn't matter that much because the Cloudflare CDN is in front of it.

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 8:28 AM

Do you know if Cloudflare has a relative product to Cloudfront uploads, where Cloudfront handles the upload into the S3 bucket? I've forgotten the name.

KarewOP•1/13/23, 8:30 AM

I'm not sure what you mean by that

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 8:30 AM

I actually don't think they have a name for it, but Cloudfront takes a POST request and redirects the input into S3, meaning the upload is MUCH faster.

KarewOP•1/13/23, 8:30 AM

Do you mean like pushing objects to the Cache?

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 8:30 AM

Found it

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 8:31 AM

Essentially the cloudfront acts a localised server that takes the input, and then uploads that to S3. Instead of uploading direct to S3 to reduce latency.

KarewOP•1/13/23, 8:31 AM

I don't think R2 has something like this. It will probably be more pertinent to just select the correct bucket location whenever they give us the ability to change the bucket location/distribution.

KarewOP•1/13/23, 8:31 AM

Selecting a location that is close to your app server or whatever is doing the uploads, that is

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 8:38 AM

Wonder if workers could act as a localised upload proxy, hmm

Original message was deleted

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 8:57 AM

I know that using a VPN i get directed to a localised bucket (when setting up a bucket), I can't confirm the upload difference, but I have EUR/USA/ASIA (They're in USA, London?, Singapore) buckets open right now, I could do a test to see if the speed difference is different to all three from my location. If they're all the same, then yes, cloudflare would be proxying upload, but I highly doubt it.

Ddefido 👊⛽Do you know if Cloudflare has a relative product to Cloudfront uploads, where Cl...

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 9:00 AM

This actually uploads to the local Cloudfront point, which then uploads to the S3 bucket. That's what I was wondering about. Technically of course Cloudflare can do that, just not sure if they did have a product like that.

defido 👊⛽•1/13/23, 9:14 AM

It's not scientific but I uploaded the same file to multiple R2 buckets that I know are in 3 different geophraphic locations (From Aus):

Singapore: 43 seconds

USA: 38 seconds

EU: 36 Seconds

Google Drive: 31 seconds
