Customized Edges

Deploy flexibly in a single cloud, multi-cloud, on-premises DC, or using Infrastructure as Code (IaC), giving you full control over data, gateway visibility, and on-demand network coverage.

AppZTNA Anti-DDoS

AppZTNA security model is entirely opposite to Cloudflare's. It doesn't depend on centralized network mitigation for DDoS attacks. In a Server Find Client zero-trust network, attackers can't attack what they can't see.

​

This is my startup idea. I don’t know if anyone will need it. I hope to get your feedback. Thank you.

A mini self-hosted cloudflare.... you mean, like building a reverse proxy? If so... we already have treafik, nginx, haproxy, etc....

Self-hosted, ruins the reason I use cloudflare, completely.

I use cloudflare, because...

  1. DDOS / Attack protection. The bandwidth hits their servers, and not mine. You CANNOT SELF HOST ddos protection, unless you have a MASSIVE amount of bandwidth. Otherwise, it just overwhelms your internet connection. It doesn't matter if the traffic is blocked. It still fills your pipe.
  2. Hiding my private IP / handling my dynamic IP.
  3. Processing my domain's SMTP. You don't want to handle email at your home IP.... its likely blacklisted from major providers.
