Serving TB of data from Google Cloud Storage (GCS)

Hello all,

We are serving TB of data per day from GCS (ML checkpoints, 2 GB to 10 GB per file).
Egress is starting to be a pain! 💸

I'm wondering if Cloudflare could help:
  • CDN: Could we just proxy a GCS bucket using a domain CNAME, and enjoy both free egress from CF and cheaper egress between GCS and CF due to the Bandwidth Alliance?
  • R2: Could we use R2 with Sippy for the same purpose? Would it be a better match?
