Viiworks is happy to announce our partnership with CloudFare! With CloudFare, we can make any website twice as fast and protect it from a broad range of web threats.
Today, hundreds of thousands of websites—ranging from individual blogs to e-commerce sites to the websites of Fortune 500 companies to national governments—use CloudFlare to make their sites faster and more secure. They power more than 65 billion monthly page views—more than Amazon, Wikipedia, Twitter, Zynga, AOL, Apple, Bing, eBay, PayPal and Instagram combined—and over 25% of the Internet’s population regularly passes through their network.
Faster web performance
CloudFlare run 74 data centers strategically located around the world. When you sign up for CloudFlare, they begin routing your traffic to the nearest data center.
As your traffic passes through the data centers, they intelligently determine what parts of your website are static versus dynamic. The static portions are cached on their servers for a short period of time, typically less than 2 hours before they check to see if they’ve been updated. By automatically moving the static parts of your site closer to your visitors, the overall performance of your site improves significantly.
CloudFlare’s intelligent caching system also means you save bandwidth, which means saving money, and decreases the load on your servers, which means your web application will run faster and more efficiently than ever. On average, CloudFlare customers see a 60% decrease in bandwidth usage, and a 65% in total requests to their servers. The overall effect is that CloudFlare will typically cut the load time for pages on your site by 50% which means higher engagement and happier visitors.
Broad web security
Over the course of 2011, CloudFlare identified a 700% increase in the number of distributed denial of service attacks (DDoS) they track on the Internet (see the chart below). As attacks like these increase, CloudFlare is stepping up to protect sites.
CloudFlare’s security protections offer a broad range of protections against attacks such as DDoS, hacking or spam submitted to a blog or comment form. What is powerful about their approach is that the system gets smarter the more sites that are part of the CloudFlare community. They analyze the traffic patterns of hundreds of millions of visitors in real time and adapt the security systems to ensure good traffic gets through and bad traffic is stopped.
In time, Sevenworks Inc. goal is nothing short of making attacks against websites a relic of history. And, given CloudFlare’s scale and the billions of different attacks they see and adapt to every year, we’re well on our way to achieving that for sites on the CloudFlare network.
Signing up
Any website can deploy CloudFlare, regardless of your underlying platform. By integrating closely with Sevenworks Inc., we make the process of setting up CloudFlare “1 click easy” through your existing website company’s dashboard. Just look for the CloudFlare icon, choose the domain you want to enable, and click the orange cloud. That’s it!
CloudFlare kept the price as low as possible and plans offered through Sevenworks Inc. are FREE. Moreover, they never charge you for bandwidth or storage, therefore saving you tons via reduced bandwidth costs.
