Cloudflare introduces two new products, Rate Limiting and Traffic Manager, aimed at giving customers control over their traffic on the edge network. With more than 10 trillion requests processed every month, Cloudflare's global network provides improved performance, security, and reliability for its 4 million customers. The Rate Limiting feature allows customers to rate limit, shape or block traffic based on various parameters such as IP, cookie, or authentication token, providing pinpoint control over their websites, applications, or APIs. Traffic Manager enables load balancing across multiple servers, datacenters, and geographies, ensuring reliability and handling unexpected spikes in traffic. Both products are now available for early access to all customers.
