What is Cloudflare?
Cloudflare is one of the biggest network operating companies in the world, which many websites use to keep their speeds higher while protecting them against any form of cyber attacks. The Cloudflare platform performs as a middle layer between the website and the users who are trying to access it through their devices.

Mint’s earlier report suggests that last month, the world witnessed two major outages with Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services (AWS), which fueled a series of incidents which affected a lot of websites. Google Cloud also witnessed an outage in June 2025, which disrupted applications like Google Meet, Discord and Spotify.
