Apps Built with Cloudflare

Cloudflare does something for African products that is harder to get any other way: it puts content physically closer to users. With edge locations across the continent, a cached page served from Lagos, Nairobi or Johannesburg avoids a round trip to Europe or North America, and that single change is often the largest performance improvement a team can make. Its free tier covers CDN, DNS and TLS, which for a bootstrapped product is meaningful. DDoS protection and a web application firewall matter more than teams expect once a product handles payments. Workers extend this to running code at the edge, and R2 removes the egress charges that make serving media expensive elsewhere, relevant for any product shipping images or video to a continent-wide audience.

Frequently asked questions

Does Cloudflare have African edge locations?
Yes, across multiple African cities, which substantially cuts latency compared with serving from Europe or North America.
Why does zero-egress storage matter?
Bandwidth charges are a major cost for products serving images or video. Storage without egress fees changes the economics of media-heavy products.
