It is only in select datacenters though, I’m sure they’ll keep rolling out new hardware for Pages over time. nonetheless I wouldn’t lose sleep over it unless you have a reason to think your app/site isn’t performing well

kian•9/24/23, 2:21 PM

Pages is just Workers & KV, so the Worker is on every server globally and the assets in KV are stored in two central stores (NA & EU) & cached in the colo they are accessed upon request.

kian•9/24/23, 2:23 PM

I'm not entirely sure what you mean

kian•9/24/23, 2:24 PM

Where did you see that documented?

kian•9/24/23, 2:26 PM

Workers are definitely in all colos.

Performance isn't the only think I'm after, I'm trying to learn how CF pages actually works and what can I / can't I actually control. I've done projects where the actual physical location of hosting needs to be controlled and actually has to be limited

My clients include e.g. schools where form data cannot legally ever be even temporarily stored outside of EU. Thanks for the assistance!

Hello, I’m Allie!•9/24/23, 2:26 PM

If not, that might be why

simpsonOP•9/24/23, 2:26 PM

Based on some quick testing we’ve done it seems like it is more like half, but that is somewhat anecdotal granted you can tail your functions and see what colo they serve from and we see a ton of traffic come from pretty far away

Hello, I’m Allie!•9/24/23, 2:26 PM

Some datacenters are paid only

Hello, I’m Allie!•9/24/23, 2:27 PM

I would note too that sometimes you may be routed far away due to bad routing at your ISP

Take a look here to see why the Cloudflare datacenter you are routed towards isn't always the closest geographically: https://www.cloudflare.com/en-gb/learning/cdn/glossary/anycast-network/

For sure there are tons of variables but we’ve been watching New England traffic just out of curiosity for a few months on one of our projects and it virtually always goes to New Jersey and not Boston or New York.

simpsonOP•9/24/23, 2:31 PM

Either way it’s super fast just interesting to see how it works, and I trust behind the scenes it is making the right decisions on routing, I think Cloudflare has earned that trust

Hello, I’m Allie!•9/24/23, 2:33 PM

But yeah, other than China(because reasons), every datacenter that you have access to is one that can run Pages and Workers.

simpsonOP•9/24/23, 2:56 PM

That is quite impressive, I thought for sure that infra was still rolling out

Isaac McFadyen•9/24/23, 3:02 PM

Even at launch it was fully rolled out. Pages uses KV as a backend, which (as far as I know) was immediately rolled out to all datacenters because of the way it works.

kian•9/24/23, 3:06 PM

You don’t need NGINX to set headers, you can do that with the _headers file

kian•9/24/23, 3:19 PM

On top of Pages? Yes - you already get Cloudflare’s CDN

bbs_samuray•9/24/23, 3:38 PM

Hello, I have just learned about cloudflare pages

bbs_samuray•9/24/23, 3:39 PM

Seems to be a free service that i can deploy my Next app

bbs_samuray•9/24/23, 3:40 PM

I was wondering if I could put advertisements on my site with the free plan

kian•9/24/23, 3:54 PM

You can use any free plan product for commercial use, yes.

SSophon Data proxy isn’t needed for prisma on pages, right?

divby0•9/25/23, 8:42 AM

did you went ahead with that? Does pages and d1 work well with prisma and the required data proxy?

Hi there, can someone help me a bit with my issue? It is regarding Cloudflare for SaaS.

kovbassa•9/25/23, 9:33 AM

@Unknown user why not? I'm actually trying to beat the 1014 CNAME Cross-user banned with this? Cloudflare support said that should help.

kovbassa•9/25/23, 9:44 AM

@Unknown user okay then, maybe you can give an advice on the case. I have two accounts. I want my site multiple deployments (prod, staging) from second account to be reachable on first account subdomain. When I do the CNAME stuff I get 1014 Err. Is it possible to do it properly somehow?

kovbassa•9/25/23, 10:06 AM

@Unknown user it is already dns only, I'm able to set only one subdomain to match my prod deployment. But if I want to reach develop.deployment.urldevelop.deployment.url or staging.deployment,urlstaging.deployment,url, I can't do that.
