CLOUDFLARE ANNOUNCES ZARAZ ACQUISITION, BOOSTING WEBSITE SPEED, SECURITY



KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 10 (Bernama) -- Cloudflare Inc, the security, performance, and reliability company helping to build a better Internet, has announced the acquisition of Zaraz, a company that has developed technology to speed up and secure websites by reducing the impact of third-party marketing and analytics tools.


Based on a statement, Zaraz is the first company Cloudflare has acquired built on its own technology, Cloudflare Workers.


“Thousands of applications have been built on Workers, and it’s been phenomenal to see the impact and innovation that it can bring at every level of an organisation from developers to CIOs.


“We truly believe that the next billion-dollar company can and will be built on Cloudflare Workers,” said Matthew Prince, co-founder and CEO of Cloudflare.


“We were impressed by how the team at Zaraz used Cloudflare Workers in a unique way to help businesses get the insights they need, while delivering the lightning performance consumers expect. We’re thrilled to have them join the team, and are excited to keep investing in the developers that build on our platform.”


With Zaraz, companies can run as many third-party tools as they need, without slowing down their website, compromising their security, or sacrificing their customer privacy. Zaraz uses Cloudflare Workers to replace the multiple network requests of each tool with one single request, effectively transforming a messy web of extensions into a single lightweight application.


“We couldn’t have built Zaraz without the global scale, speed, and flexibility provided by Cloudflare Workers,” said Yair Dovrat, co-founder and CEO of Zaraz.


“Using Workers meant that we were able to optimise Zaraz for performance and security, something traditional tag managers couldn’t do. We’re excited to join Cloudflare’s team so that we can make a difference across the entire Internet, making it faster, better, and safer for everyone.”
