I'm pretty new to Cloudflare, since Google sold off Domains, and CF does a lot more than I realized. Excited for my first "dev week" with Cloudflare.

Does anyone have any favorite announcements from years past, or hints to what might be exciting this year?

(confession: i work at cloudflare)

but we just made our first announcements for this week, including: - d1 (our serverless database) going GA - hyperdrive (SQL query cache for postgres and mysql) going GA - and workers analytics engine

if you just moved off google domains, i recommend checking out cloudflare pages, which is cloudflare's product for hosting static and dynamic sites (with gitops, everything else included).

Yup, I'm planning to check out Pages for some static sites. R2 might be another one I look at.

I'm largely container / k8s based, no real interest in these edge or serverless solutions that cannot be easily replicated locally. I'm also keen to keep intra app requests in the same cloud provider, to avoid latency and egress costs

("disclaimer" is probably better than "confession" Cloudflare is generally held down on high regard here :)

Still waiting for cloudflare to reach the “The Box”[1] phase.
