Cloudflare Workers

Overview

Cloudflare Workers is a serverless execution environment that runs JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, and Rust code on Cloudflare's global network. Workers execute in milliseconds, scale automatically, and integrate with Cloudflare's storage and compute products through bindings.

Key Benefits:

• Zero cold starts - Workers run in V8 isolates, not containers
• Global deployment - Code runs in 300+ cities worldwide
• Rich ecosystem - Bindings to D1, KV, R2, Durable Objects, Queues, Containers, Workflows, and more
• Full-stack capable - Build APIs and serve static assets in one project
• Standards-based - Uses Web APIs (fetch, crypto, streams, WebSockets)
