Portland (Oregon): Cloudflare's 117th Data Center!
On September 1st, 2017, Cloudflare deployed its newest data center in Portland, Oregon, marking its 27th data center in North America and the 117th worldwide. This expansion provides additional redundancy to existing data centers in Seattle and San Jose while increasing capacity for running services and combating cyber attacks. The Silicon Forest corridor around Portland holds a special place in Cloudflare's history, as it has had an internal data center in this region for years. The company is also working on expanding its edge network with at least a dozen additional data centers within North America and over 50 new cities globally.
