An essential for me
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
For the main use case, we use Cloudflare as our DNS manager and main proxy for the most important domains and subdomains.
For secondary cases we use it to build reverse proxies for some "embedded" apps and to handle specific use cases like sitemap generation, connecting to GEO monitors and others

Pros
- DNS Management
- DDoS prevention
- Low latency implementations
Cons
- Interacting with logs usually requires setting up an extraction, doing simple queries on them could be out-of-the-box
- AI crawlers/bots monitoring can also use a better UX and allow for better drill downs
- It could have better tutorials for things like storage and workers
Return on Investment
- Has being a key factor to stop possible attacks or malicious requests
- Has saved engineering time when mitigating attacks in a fast way
- Has helped reducing engineering time needed to build custom apps without using a subdomain
