Nearly 9 in 10 European companies using a CDN rely on Cloudflare
Among European Companies That Use a CDN, Nearly 9 in 10 Use Cloudflare
An analysis of 44,143 European companies with a detected CDN finds that 89.6% use Cloudflare, far ahead of Amazon (3,112), Fastly (1,299), and Akamai (396). The concentration varies by country, from 95.6% in the Netherlands to 78.8% in Spain and Ireland. The article warns that such market dominance turns routine internal errors at Cloudflare into continent-wide outages, citing three recent incidents. It also notes the measurement covers only the front door, not data residency, and explains how to check your own site's CDN.
When one provider fronts most of a market, its mistakes stop being its own problem and become everyone's, at the same time.
