Who is this best for?
This is the fastest way to decide whether Cloudflare R2 is in the right neighborhood.
Best for
- Egress-heavy workloads serving public content (media, downloads, assets)
- Teams already using Cloudflare and wanting tighter ecosystem adjacency
- Buyers optimizing for pricing mechanics over hyperscaler breadth
- Products that need S3-style object storage without hyperscaler governance overhead
Who should avoid
- You require deep enterprise governance features tied to a hyperscaler ecosystem
- Your workload depends on hyperscaler-native integrations across many services
- You need guaranteed parity with every S3 feature and edge-case behavior
