Cloudflare Stream Delivery
Cloudflare’s global Anycast network ensures fast online video experiences, with shorter video startup times and reduced buffering, no matter where your visitors are located. Flat-rate bandwidth pricing ensures predictable costs, even in the case of legitimate traffic spikes or volumetric DDoS attacks.
Fast, global video content delivery network
Cloudflare’s content delivery network (CDN) spans 250 cities across 100 countries, including 25 in China, ensuring the fastest delivery of high-quality video content at global scale. We ensure fast online video experiences, with shorter video startup times and reduced buffering. Video files can be selectively purged from Cloudflare’s entire network cache within seconds.
Increased bandwidth savings
Caching content on Cloudflare's network reduces the number of requests to an origin by serving static content from a Cloudflare data center, lowering bandwidth consumption from the origin. Customers hosting their websites with Cloudflare Bandwidth Alliance partners can either save or eliminate entirely data egress costs from their hosting provider to Cloudflare when dynamic content is requested.
Packaged Functionalities
Cloudflare offers a rich ecosystem of performance and security services tuned specifically for video to provide the best uptime and delivery. Advanced business logic can be applied at Cloudflare’s network edge to ensure special handling and tagging for video content on the Cloudflare network.
DDoS Protection
Cloudflare’s Anycast network of data centers across 250 cities in 100 countries has over 100 Tbps capacity to absorb legitimate traffic spikes or DDoS attacks. Unmetered mitigation of DDoS attacks ensures the continuous availability of video content delivery.
SSL / TLS 1.3 Encryption
Encryption is applied to all files proxied through Cloudflare’s network to prevent snooping, and ensure a secure connection between visitors and your website. SSL / TLS encryption also prevents mixed content errors on your website.
Cache Configuration
Cache Control Headers, Cache Tags, & Page Rules allow video content cache TTLs to be configurable and long-lived. Cache Tags allow for more granular purging and TTL customizations.
Tiered Caching
Origin bandwidth costs are expensive, especially egress costs of caching video content across Cloudflare’s network. Cloudflare’s Tiered Caching minimizes server caching requests and reduces bandwidth costs by having selective and regional Tier 1 data centers request and propagate content across Cloudflare’s network.
Cloudflare Workers
Workers brings javascript to the network edge, offering business logic and customizations as part of video delivery. Solutions include: Watermarking, DRM Light, and User Authorization.
