CF Workers (that runs WebAssembly) are all over place. They may not run the main logic (not the actual Ngix, or DNSEC code) but they are used for several maintaince tasks.
Discord is the place to go. All CF Devs are there.
I got on particular fix one time in just a few minutes, and scalated pretty quickly. I got a recomendation fix on my side (a code change on my deployment that cover the problem) and a permanent fix on CF side 4h latter (time that took to changes propagate to all colos)
Yes there’s products on CF that cost a lot of money. Like Argo. So… just don’t use that kind of product? All prices are clear. We are discussing the “free” CDN services. You will never get a random bill for that.
Was computed related, but he find a loop role on his business contract. He was right by the legal team os the service, but they used a another term that make they right to not work with us anyway. His document ID was banned (he cant create accounts with his name/id anymore).
I dont remember the details, but was related to the free limits per account. And if my memory serves, he was in the plan that he can create how many parent accounts he wants for free. That plan does not exists anymore.
My POV as customer for 5 years, doing mostly Video and Binary transfers and asked to move to enterprise few times (and still on the Pro plan, never had any interruption):
They will NEVER says specifics bytes or anything like that (any cloud provider that has any abuse prevention clausule will not too)!
If you says that a "large" file is 100mb people will just gamble and split the files in 100mb chunks. Same for any value here. The idea is mostly about pattern recognition (any abuse detection algorithm) and how much do you pay and how much you are costing.
Bandwidth is cheap for CF but they dont want anyone gaming the system, i will upgrade for enterprise at some point mostly because the SLA, but at the time im writing here, i pay $20 month for a service traffic that cost (to me) hundreds `per day` on AWS or GCP...
People here talk like they multi million dollar project will be blocked because some user downloads a 10mb file on a free plan. But if you really have a critical product you can get enterprise plans starting at $1500 dollars, hardly more than 3K. The enterprise plan is mostly about the SLA than actually services; Thats not the reality of mostly of the people. The basics plans are very good for almost everyone IMHO.
My rule of thumb of any cloud service / provider: You will for sure get deals that will cost very little to you, that is 10x/20x cheaper, but once you "savings" are on the 100x range you may find someone on the other side trying to make you to pay more. I have a friend that was banned from GCP for that reason (long story).
Another example: Hetzner - You can do a lot with the "free" 20TB bandwidth... But do not think that just because theres a number here theres no "catch" for some "creative flow", we got blocked once, was a mistake and is resolved but anything free has abuse protection rules (sometimes not writen) and will find you.
