Workers DDoS protection
Hi there. I am considering using cloudflare queues and the producer / consumers with workers. I am interested to know what is the best solution to handle DDoS on the producer worker that would have an exposed URL like a public api. This is a URL I would be giving to customers.

Use case is I give my clients an api key and the url. They use that to help send. me payloads to integrate the product with another software.
I would place it on a domain you own, and then use the Cloudflare WAF for protection
How much is WAF? It covers even workers on a subdomain?
WAF itself is free(and covers the entire domain). Some features may be paid however. https://developers.cloudflare.com/waf/

Cloudflare Web Application Firewall
The Cloudflare Web Application Firewall (WAF) provides automatic protection from vulnerabilities and the flexibility to create custom rules.
Interesting. WAF on Amazon is pricy. How does it compare?
