Cloudflare gives us most of what we need in one place: websites and APIs with Workers, databases, object storage, images and video, queues, workflows, analytics, Hyperdrive, real-time connections with Durable Objects, domain management, and more.

Although we make hosting decisions on a case-by-case basis, Cloudflare has become our go-to platform for most deployments. One exception is the database layer, where we typically use Postgres through PlanetScale, starting at $5 per month. Cloudflare D1 is great for many use cases, but its 10 GB database size limit can become restrictive, while Postgres, with its mature ecosystem and wide range of extensions, is generally a better fit for larger production workloads.

One of the harder parts when planning a project is understanding what all of this will actually cost at scale. Cloudflare's pricing is spread across different products, each with its own limits and usage-based pricing.

We also use it as a resource we can forward to clients so they can get a rough idea of infrastructure costs based on their expected usage.
