Cloudflare Showing in Headers Despite Migrating to Route 53

What is the name of the domain?

What is the issue you’re encountering

Hi Team, Previously, we were using Cloudflare DNS for our website, but we migrated to AWS Route 53 two years ago. However, even now, when we inspect our website in the browser, the network headers still show “Server: Cloudflare”. I have checked everything on the Cloudflare dashboard, but: There are no DNS entries related to my domain. The Cache settings page is empty. I am logged into Cloudflare, but the dashboard does not show my domain under active sites. Since we are no longer using Cloudflare, I need help understanding why this is happening and how I can completely remove Cloudflare from my website headers. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

I have verified using the DIG command, and all my DNS records now correctly resolve to AWS. However, when inspecting the website in the browser, the network headers still show “Server: Cloudflare”.

What are the steps to reproduce the issue?
