"Micah Wylde, principal engineer at Cloudflare, Alex Graham, senior systems engineer at Cloudflare, and Jérôme Schneider, staff software engineer at Cloudflare, explain: Analytical data is critical for modern companies. It allows you to understand your users' behavior, your company's performance, and alerts you to issues. But traditional data infrastructure is expensive and hard to operate, requiring fixed cloud infrastructure and in-house expertise. We built the Cloudflare Data Platform to be easy enough for anyone to use with affordable, usage-based pricing."
"Source: Cloudflare blog Cloudflare Pipelines collects events sent through Workers or HTTP, processes them using SQL, and stores them either in Iceberg tables or as files on R2. R2 Data Catalog tracks the Iceberg metadata and now also handles regular maintenance tasks, such as compaction, to make queries faster. R2 SQL is a distributed serverless query engine for petabyte-scale datasets in R2."
Cloudflare Data Platform is an open-beta, managed analytics solution that combines Cloudflare Pipelines, R2 Data Catalog, and R2 SQL to ingest, store, and query analytical tables using Apache Iceberg. Cloudflare Pipelines collects events via Workers or HTTP, processes them with SQL, and writes to Iceberg tables or R2 files. R2 Data Catalog manages Iceberg metadata and performs maintenance tasks like compaction to improve query performance. R2 SQL provides a distributed, serverless query engine capable of petabyte-scale queries on R2. The platform emphasizes ease of use, affordability, and usage-based pricing to lower operational overhead.
