Célébrer le 14 Juillet avec Marseille, le 36ème point de présence de CloudFlare

On July 14, 2015, a new data center was announced in Marseille, France by an unnamed company. This marks their second data center in France, twelfth in Europe and thirty-sixth globally. The choice of Marseille is strategic due to its size as the second largest city in France with 2 million internet users, its role as a point of redundancy for their Paris data center, and its location as a major gateway for networks throughout the Mediterranean region, including many African and Middle Eastern countries. This deployment has reduced latency by half for Algeria and other countries, making web sites and applications behind CloudFlare 2x faster to access. The company is also participating in FranceIX's Marseille Internet exchange, serving traffic to networks throughout the Mediterranean region.
