Cloudflare is experiencing a major global outage that has disrupted internet access across multiple regions. The incident is affecting a wide range of platforms that rely on Cloudflare’s infrastructure, leading to widespread service failures. Early reports indicate that several high-traffic websites, including major social and streaming platforms, became temporarily inaccessible.
The disruption has triggered user complaints worldwide, with outages impacting social networks, media services, and application APIs. Some users also reported limited access to AI tools and productivity platforms that depend on Cloudflare’s routing and security services. The company has acknowledged the issue and is working to restore stability across its network.
Analysts note that the scale of the outage underscores the critical dependence of global internet traffic on a small number of infrastructure providers. Market observers are now evaluating potential implications for uptime commitments and cloud-service resilience.
