Project Fair Shot

Cloudflare's Waiting Room

Cloudflare's Waiting Room feature allows organizations with more demand for a resource — be it concert tickets, new edition sneakers, or vaccines — to allow individuals to queue and then allocate access. Waiting Rooms can be deployed in front of any existing registration website without requiring code changes.

In 2022, Project Fair Shot received a Webby Award in the category of People's Voice Winner.

"Bottom line is Cloudflare saved lives today. Our County will forever be grateful for your participation in getting the vaccine to those that need it most in an elegant, efficient and ethical manner."

"Project Fair Shot has enabled RSVPify's critical vaccination scheduling portals to seamlessly handle mass traffic surges without breaking a sweat. Our team and partners sleep better at night knowing Waiting Room is watching."

Co-Founder & CEO, RSVPify

"Typically, we'll hit about 70% utilization across our web servers and database. With Cloudflare Waiting Room’s queue enabled, we were letting 200 visitors through at a time, and we saw there's no noticeable spike. It was only at 10% of capacity...which is really good to see."

Jake Gissing
Developer, Ticket Tailor

“Our relationship with Cloudflare went from ‘Let's try Waiting Room’ to ‘Unless you have this, we're not going live with that public facing site.’ Our solution is all about patient relationship management, so, as we expand with hospitals, it is going to be part of our default recommendation to them and how they deal with their security stance for opening up their surfaces to the community.”

Michael Millar
CEO, Verto Health

"Cloudflare Waiting Room allowed us to plan for a steady load instead of having a large investment in the infrastructure for the launch. And it helped with communication because it was considered a good service to the public."

Māris Dreimanis
Vaccination Project Office IT Coordinator

"Layering the Waiting Room with Cloudflare Workers has allowed us to scale up to virtually unlimited demand."

CTO and Co-founder, Luma Health
