Summary

The text discusses the vision of "The Network is the Computer" and how it applies to Cloudflare's network. It emphasizes that users should think of the network as a single, global entity providing various services such as CDN, WAF, DDoS protection, Zero Trust, and scalable code deployment. The text also mentions the evolution from writing assembly language for machines to serverless computing, which allows developers to focus on writing code without worrying about underlying hardware or operating systems. Cloudflare's network is everywhere on the planet, ensuring high performance and low latency for deployed code. The company encourages developers to build applications using its platform and will announce new features during Innovation Week.
