Cloudflare Network Acceleration
Delivered by TechPower - Your Trusted Cloudflare Partner
Enterprise networks are under more pressure than ever. Remote workforces, multi-cloud environments, and growing SaaS adoption are pushing legacy WAN architectures to their limits. Cloudflare Network Acceleration gives IT teams a faster, more intelligent path forward - replacing outdated infrastructure with a globally distributed connectivity cloud that delivers security and performance at scale.
TechPower partners with Cloudflare to help enterprise organisations design, deploy, and manage network acceleration solutions tailored to their specific environments.

Overview
Cloudflare operates one of the most interconnected networks in the world, spanning over 330 cities globally. This infrastructure forms the foundation of Cloudflare Network Acceleration - a suite of services that connects users, offices, data centres, and cloud resources while eliminating the performance bottlenecks common in traditional WAN deployments.
Rather than routing traffic through centralised hub sites or relying on expensive MPLS circuits, Cloudflare processes network requests as close to end users as possible. The result is lower latency, improved reliability, and a significantly better experience for users across every location.

Use Cases
Hybrid Work and SaaS Performance
Employees working remotely or accessing SaaS applications need low-latency, reliable connectivity. Cloudflare routes traffic intelligently across its global network, improving performance for distributed teams without requiring changes to end-user devices.
WAN Transformation
Organisations looking to move away from rigid MPLS architectures can migrate to Cloudflare's connectivity cloud incrementally. Branch offices and data centres connect through flexible tunnel options, reducing circuit costs while improving network agility.
DDoS Protection for Network Infrastructure
Critical infrastructure - including data centres and multi-cloud deployments - is protected at the network edge. Cloudflare's Magic Transit service mitigates volumetric and protocol-based DDoS attacks before they reach your environment, ensuring uptime and reliability.
Multi-Cloud and Hybrid Connectivity
Connect cloud VPCs, on-premises networks, and remote users through a consistent network layer. Cloudflare acts as the intermediary that ties together disparate environments, removing the complexity of managing separate point-to-point connections.
