Cloudflare Uses Massive Data to Boost Global Network

⚡ Cloudflare is leveraging telemetry from its vast Free Plan and global edge to refine congestion control and improve routing across its network. By combining passive connection logs, Real User Measurement (RUM) and cross-network models, the team evaluates multiple algorithms beyond classic loss-based and BBR approaches. A migration to a Rust-based stack enables faster experimentation and parameter tuning; early QUIC tests show up to 10% performance gains. Cloudflare plans staged rollouts through 2026 and offers enterprise early access.
