Frequently Asked Questions
- Can Cloudflare Workers replace a traditional backend?
- For lightweight API logic, yes. Workers handle request routing, authentication, and simple data operations at the edge. Complex business logic still benefits from a traditional server.
- How do you handle custom domains for SaaS?
- We automate CNAME setup, SSL provisioning, and Cloudflare for SaaS configuration so your customers can use custom domains with your platform.
- How much does Cloudflare cost?
- Cloudflare offers a generous free tier. Pro plans start at $20/month. Workers pricing is $5/month plus $0.50 per million requests beyond the free tier.
