500 Tbps of capacity: 16 years of scaling our global network

Cloudflare's global network has officially crossed 500 Tbps of external capacity — enough to route more than 20% of the web and absorb the largest DDoS attacks ever recorded. This milestone, reached 16 years after the company's founding, reflects massive infrastructure growth: network capacity has grown by 817% since 2020, expanding its global presence by 65% from 200 cities to over 330 cities worldwide. Since 2021 alone, Cloudflare also increased its private backbone capacity by more than 500%, unlocking new use cases as well as reliability and performance benefits for customers.
