Announcing a new self-serve API for Bring Your Own IP (BYOIP), giving customers unprecedented control and flexibility to onboard, manage, and use their own IP prefixes with Cloudflare's services.
Many products at Cloudflare aren’t possible without pushing the limits of network hardware and software to deliver improved performance, increased efficiency, or novel capabilities such as soft-unicast, our method for sharing IP subnets across data centers. Happily, most people do not need to know the intricacies of how your operating system handles network and Internet access in general. Yes, even most people within Cloudflare. But sometimes we try to push well beyond the design intentions of Linux’s networking stack. This is a story about one of those attempts.
Tired of IP Lists? Securely connect private networks to any app by its hostname, not its IP address. This routing is now built into Cloudflare Tunnel and is free for all Cloudflare One customers.
Cloudflare Aegis provides dedicated egress IPs for Zero Trust origin access strategies, now supporting BYOIP and customer-facing configurability, with observability of Aegis IP utilization soon.
Together, Cloudflare and MosaicML give customers the freedom to train LLMs on any compute, anywhere in the world, with zero switching costs. That means faster, cheaper training runs, and no vendor lock in.
Amazon’s says: “We strive to offer our customers the lowest possible prices, the best available selection, and the utmost convenience.” When it comes to egress, their prices are far from the lowest.
High egress costs from a Cloud limit customers choice in Cloud services. Cloudflare’s Bandwidth Alliance with our cloud partners provides an alternative to this lock-in. Our customers have benefitted from this both via discounted egress costs and choice of storage providers.
