About Product | A "Cloudflare Worker" is JavaScript you write that runs on Cloudflare's edge. A "Cloudflare Service Worker" is specifically a worker which handles HTTP traffic and is written against the Service Worker API. Currently, this is the only kind of worker we've implemented, but in the future we may introduce other worker types for certain specialized tasks. It can do anything and everything. You're writing code, so the possibilities are infinite. Your Service Worker will intercept all HTTP requests destined for your domain, and can return any valid HTTP response. Your worker can make outgoing HTTP requests to any server on the public internet. | Netlify is a web development platform that multiplies productivity. |

Performance | Cloudflare Workers respond very quickly, typically in under 200 milliseconds, when cold starting. In contrast, both Lambda and [email protected] functions can take over a second to respond from a cold start. The differences are largely due to the fact that Cloudflare Workers run on Chrome V8 rather than Node. | Onboarding Start building a database in production in 5 minutes. Scalability Automatically done through serverless technology. Regions You can pare with AWS and have the same scope. Backups You can backup through Google Cloud. Security Across our global Edge, content deployed to the edge nodes is fully prerendered and static, offering no active processes or surface area for attack. Netlify undergoes a SOC 2 Type 2 audit annually, performed by an independent auditor. (Our enterprise customers can request a full audit report.) Netlify is PCI compliant for all SAQ-A requirements to safely process credit card transactions. Netlify deploys only to major cloud providers who regularly undergo extensive security audits and certifications. Netlify leverages globally distributed data center partners that comply with leading security policies and frameworks. |
Technical Details | Cloudflare Workers are written in JavaScript, executed using the V8 JavaScript engine (from Google Chrome). It choosed JavaScript and V8 for two main reasons. 1. Security The V8 JavaScript engine is arguably the most scrutinized code sandbox in the history of computing, and the Chrome security team is one of the best in the world. Moreover, Google pays massive bug bounties to anyone who can find a vulnerability. (That said, we have added additional layers of our own sandboxing on top of V8.) 2. Ubiquity JavaScript is everywhere. Anyone building a web application already needs to know it: whereas their server could be written in a variety of languages, the client has to be JavaScript, because that's what browsers run. | Manage everything in one project Build & test locally Stage, preview, and rollback Run A/B testing and phased rollouts |
