This is interesting! :slightly_smiling_face:

One question though, which I couldn’t find in the docs. Where are Cloudflare Pages hosted/stored specifically?

(Yes I know ā€œin the cloudā€, but that’s not really a geographical location and I suppose our entire website, including the unpopular assets, is not replicated in each data centre. Workers KV, for instance, has a global storage for ā€˜cold’ files.)

I’d be surprised if this wasn’t stored like the current Cloudflare Worker Sites are, the ā€œPagesā€ are simply a Worker that serves the headers etc and uses KV for the page-storage. I’m sure the pricing (once revealed) will reflect that.

There is one gaping ravine of a problem with all this, you still can’t ā€œsellā€ sites because workers and KV aren’t available in Cloudflare Apps yet, something I bet will be coming soonā„¢.

It’s already revealed.

Bottom of the pages.cloudflare.com page.

Huh, that’s surprises me quite a lot that they would make it ā€œunlimitedā€.

Now the pricing is based on how often you update your site.
I’m sure it’s more than expected, especially since previews seem to count too.
