"Custom Regions can be defined using arbitrary geographic groupings. For example, a region may include North America or exclude those three countries. It could also be based on other arbitrary criteria, such as countries that use Fahrenheit."
"At the core of Regional Services is enforcement of a simple rule: TLS termination and Layer 7 processing only happen inside your chosen region. Custom Regions expands this capability by allowing you to choose your own region definitions."
"Cloudflare takes a different approach to regional traffic than Azure or AWS. Instead of defining a fixed geographic area with resources in a specific subset of data centers, it runs workloads on a global edge network."
Cloudflare has launched Custom Regions, enabling customers to specify where their data is processed by selecting data center groups by country or region. This feature ensures TLS termination and application-layer processing occur within designated geographic boundaries. Customers can define region membership and enforce traffic routing limits. Custom Regions can be based on arbitrary geographic groupings, allowing for unique combinations or exclusions of countries. This approach differs from traditional region-first clouds, as Cloudflare utilizes a global edge network for workload processing.
