The Cloudflare China Network
Fast, secure web browsing for China-based sites.
Cloudflare works with our strategic partners in China to provide a high-performance global network that serves visitors inside and outside of China — with DDoS mitigation, a web application firewall (WAF), and Zero Trust security built in.
BENEFITS OF THE CHINA NETWORK
Intelligent, global threat protection
Our threat intelligence learns from every web property across our global network, helping our China-based customers withstand both large-scale attacks and isolated outages.
Guaranteed availability and performance
Serve cached content from the Cloudflare China Network to drastically reduce load times for end users and avoid traffic bottlenecks when entering or leaving China.
Simplified management
Manage your traffic and security posture inside and outside of China from a unified control plane — no separate dashboards, support, or billing necessary.
Maximize web performance and availability for users in China
China’s Internet architecture differs from the rest of the world — and users within China may experience more latency and packet loss when accessing content from data centers outside China.
To optimize content delivery and provide a faster, more secure user experience, Cloudflare partners with JD Cloud to manage approximately 35 data centers across mainland China and connect with major ISPs in each region.
