At Cloudflare, we're committed to providing top-notch security solutions. Recently, our team achieved a significant milestone: a 10x increase in global scanning capacity. This enhancement enables us to better protect our customers from emerging threats and improve their overall security posture.
To accomplish this feat, our engineering team relied on Postgres and Kafka to streamline data processing and storage. By optimizing our architecture, we were able to significantly boost our scanning capabilities, ensuring that our customers receive the best possible security insights.
This increase in scanning capacity has far-reaching implications for our customers, including enhanced application security and more effective security posture management. With our improved capabilities, we can now identify and mitigate potential threats more efficiently than ever before.
