The Human Infrastructure: How Netflix Built the Operations Layer Behind Live at Scale

By: Brett Axler, Casper Choffat, and Alo LowryIn the three years since our first Live show, Chris Rock: Selective Outrage, we have witnessed an incredible expansion of our live content slate and the live operations that support it. From modest beginnings of streaming just one show per month, we are now capable of streaming over nine shows in a single day, reaching tens of millions of concurrent members. This post pulls back the curtain on the Live Operations teams that enable this rapid sca...

Shaun Thomas: Enforcing Constraints Across Postgres Partitions

Postgres table partitioning is one of those features that feels like a superpower right up until it isn't. Just define a partition key, carve up data into manageable chunks, and everything hums along beautifully. And what's not to love? Partition pruning in query plans, smaller tables, faster maintenance, easy archiving of old data; it's a smorgasbord of convenience.Then you try to enforce a unique constraint without including the partition key, and Postgres behaves as if you just asked it to...

Introducing Flagship: feature flags built for the age of AI

We are launching Flagship, a native feature flag service built on Cloudflare’s global network to eliminate the latency of third-party providers. By using KV and Durable Objects, Flagship allows for sub-millisecond flag evaluation.

Agents Week: network performance update

By migrating our request handling layer to a Rust-based architecture called FL2, Cloudflare has increased its performance lead to 60% of the world’s top networks. We use real-user measurements and TCP connection trimeans to ensure our data reflects the actual experience of people on the Internet.

Agents that remember: introducing Agent Memory

Cloudflare Agent Memory is a managed service that gives AI agents persistent memory, allowing them to recall what matters, forget what doesn't, and get smarter over time.

Unweight: how we compressed an LLM 22% without sacrificing quality

Running LLMs across Cloudflare’s network requires us to be smarter and more efficient about GPU memory bandwidth. That’s why we developed Unweight, a lossless inference-time compression system that achieves up to a 22% model footprint reduction, so that we can deliver faster and cheaper inference than ever before.

Redirects for AI Training enforces canonical content

Soft directives don’t stop crawlers from ingesting deprecated content. Redirects for AI Training allows anybody on Cloudflare to redirect verified crawlers to canonical pages with one toggle and no origin changes.

Shared Dictionaries: compression that keeps up with the agentic web

Today, we’re excited to give you a sneak peek of our support for shared compression dictionaries, show you how it improves page load times, and reveal when you’ll be able to try the beta yourself.

Introducing the Agent Readiness score. Is your site agent-ready?

The Agent Readiness score can help site owners understand how well their websites support AI agents. Here we explore new standards, share Radar data, and detail how we made Cloudflare’s docs the most agent-friendly on the web.

Radim Marek: PostgreSQL MVCC, Byte by byte

You run SELECT * FROM orders in one psql session and see 50 million rows. A colleague in another session runs the same query at the same moment and sees 49,999,999. Neither of you is wrong, and neither is seeing stale data. You are both reading the same 8KB heap pages, the same bytes on disk. This is the promise of PostgreSQL's MVCC (Multi-Version Concurrency Control), and it's the reason readers never block writers and writers never block readers. It is also one of the most misunderstood pie...

How robots learn: A brief, contemporary history

Roboticists used to dream big but build small. They’d hope to match or exceed the extraordinary complexity of the human body, and then they’d spend their career refining robotic arms for auto plants. Aim for C-3P0; end up with the Roomba.  The real ambition for many of these researchers was the robot of science fiction—one…
