I'd recommend using the astro starter for cf to get a feel for it, initially we just uploaded it as a static site with workers managing anything that needed interaction but we recently started deploying more advanced astro projects through ci/cid and that's been a lot smoother

Does anyone happen to know how long logs are stored when using a free plan of Pages? This is just information for the privacy policy, as right now it is just something akin to "log files are periodically wiped" which I think technically is enough, but GDPR to my knowledge recommends saying how long such stuff is stored. Although if stating it's periodically wiped is good enough then that's also fine

Is smart placement not recommended for applications with globally spread databases?

e.g. traffic in Chicago convinces smart placement that ORD is the optimal colo to complete requests in, as there is a DB in Chicago awaiting writes...

Will traffic from California, be routed through the ORD worker?... considering there will also be a closer DB within California they will (by design) have to hit anyway

Or will smart placement eventually learn that California and Chicago traffic has to be specifically ran in different colos

is this (recreating my favorite parts of Firestore in DO) super dumb or potentially something worth exploring? i can't tell.. https://github.com/acoyfellow/blaze

if we think of a DO like a single "document"... is that crazy to think it's like a document with superpowers? what if a firestore document itself was a little server?

The biggest issue is scaling. Each Durable Object is single-threaded, which can limit the amount of tasks it can complete in a given amount of time. This is fine if the app is architected to spread load out across multiple documents, but becomes less ideal in the event that a developer attempts to use a single document to track global state

that makes sense.. i was thinking about a global state being somewhere else, maybe not in a single DO (d1?) that then the DO's can sync to

Yeah, that could work. You would just then need to highlight this to developers building on your system, who may not explicitly know about it

For sure. At this point it's much more of an exploration of architecture for some side projects / consulting gigs.

Hi Community,

I am facing an issue that my waf has been detecting a lot of traffic coming from IP that are actually Cloudflare IPs and I think this is because of the CDN. I want to know the details about it - what these IPs are exactly?, what is being done? and what should I do so that waf does not generate the alerts for this?

This is likely users on Cloudflare WARP, which is Cloudflare's VPN-like service.

Unless you're actually doing work for the money then there's no reason they'd just give you money for free.

Most of those users are in a few numbers of region/time zone, so at 3AM all those users aren't on the site.

I thought it was due to routing issues because I can't find any logic that the entire country traffic goes suddenly down more than a 60%

Well, not routing issues but random potential blockings
