Part of the reason Cloudflare can offer so affordable products is that they aren't durable and only run on request - even if they did offer such products I don't think they would necessarily be much different than AWS' (fairly decent) EC2 rates.

its more of the dx that is what i am excited about

The model of nodejs apps/actual servers is just a bit messy too, have to spin them up and down, worry about regions, etc

Chaika•10/13/23, 7:22 PM

The Workers model can fit a lot of use cases, espec with DOs and such, I would rather a future where that sort of architecture becomes more common and dx around it gets better

biganshOP•10/13/23, 7:24 PM

i get it. the regions part is particullarly messy. but the ecosystem around DO servers is too strong to give up for the edge network

ok, tell me this. why arent we allowed to use the d1 serverless sql without workers? also, for queues, the documentation is confusing. can we make them better?

D1 is available without Workers via the Cloudflare API, but it's rate limited since the API wasn't designed specifically for D1, just Cloudflare products in general.

ya. no rest api support in the future?

Bbigansh ya. no rest api support in the future?

Isaac McFadyen•10/13/23, 7:36 PM

I'm unsure, don't think the roadmap is public and even if it is, teams don't generally commit to anything concretely.

Chaika•10/13/23, 7:37 PM

they've talked about http pull before: queues

Chaika•10/13/23, 7:38 PM

The only thing I would keep in mind with D1's API is that it's going to be slower, sometimes considerably then via a Worker

biganshOP•10/13/23, 7:38 PM

got it

biganshOP•10/13/23, 7:38 PM

Anyone can help ? Documentation not clear. I just want to know Cloudflare images can add border with flexible variants??

CF Proxy on = Cloudflare IP
CF Proxy off = Hoster IP right?

Cyb3r-Jak3•10/13/23, 11:34 PM

Correct.

Kasumi•10/13/23, 11:34 PM

Kasumi•10/13/23, 11:35 PM

Is it possible to disable that Cloudflare uses the Data that the client gives the Hoster lik IP user agent etc. for statistics or so?

Cyb3r-Jak3•10/14/23, 12:02 AM

You can use web analytics for stuff not through Cloudflare https://developers.cloudflare.com/analytics/web-analytics/getting-started/

Cyb3r-Jak3•10/14/23, 1:30 AM

Reverse proxies do a lot less than your end service in terms of load

Hello, I’m Allie!•10/14/23, 5:12 PM

Not if you want it to be usable by just anybody.

Hello, I’m Allie!•10/14/23, 5:13 PM

As in, Zero Trust is if you have a small group of people you wish to give access

HHello, I’m Allie!Not if you want it to be usable by just anybody.

AA•10/14/23, 5:14 PM

Hmm. In This scenario only the web servers would be accessing it directly. The end user wouldn't have individual credentials

Oh, then you can just add a WAF rule that blocks anything not coming from a "worker" on your zone, which afaik counts Functions too.

Ah. So would block anything hosted on pages or functions.. but not a site hosted on netlifty?

Erisa•10/14/23, 5:37 PM

It does count functions but the worker zone will be the project.pages.devproject.pages.dev domain

does Pages backend support dom?

IIdkWhatever69 does Pages backend support dom?

Hello, I’m Allie!•10/14/23, 6:59 PM

It does not, at least not without using some kind of dependency

mightyendeavor•10/14/23, 7:21 PM

is there any documentation on the waf ruleset precedence and time it takes to deploy?

can we expect to host a nodejs app or durable servers on cloudflare anytime soon?
