Why people still use GCP and AWS?
Cloudflare is so generous and provides almost everything— Workers, D1, CDN, KV, Durable Objects, Workers AI, S3 Compatible Storage (R2) & More!
And don't forget Tunnel!
It's a magical invention that lets us host websites while keeping our server firewalls closed!
Does Cloudflare have equivalent of GCP's Kubernetes Engine?
I can't figure it out why we are obsessed with AWS and GCP!
Because they don't offer the most basic service... virtual machines.
Not everyone is making serverless JS web applications!
Most of the time, people need a Linux server they can SSH into.
Cloudflare don't offer this, so I continue to use AWS.
I haven't used Cloudflare specifically for infrastructure but PAAS offerings like this have huge vendor lock-in which is a big risk. Not to mention if that feature you need isn’t supported by their abstraction you’re out of luck.
