Announcing Cloudflare Image Resizing: Simplifying Optimal Image Delivery

What's this blog post about?

The amount of image data on median mobile webpages has doubled in the past three years, leading to slower websites and users hitting data transfer caps. To address this issue, Cloudflare has launched a new product called Image Resizing that allows customers to perform various actions on images such as resize, crop, compress, and convert to WebP format. This enables developers to store a single high-quality image on their server and create specialized variants for each specific use case, automatically benefiting from Cloudflare's global caching. The product is available at no additional cost for Business and Enterprise Customers with generous usage limits.
