Joint customers outside mainland China can have
bandwidth fees waived
Cloudflare, Inc. (NYSE: NET), the security, performance, and
reliability company helping to build a better Internet, today
announced that it has expanded the Bandwidth Alliance by partnering
with Alibaba Cloud, the data intelligence backbone of Alibaba
Group.
The Bandwidth Alliance, launched in September 2018, is a group
of forward-thinking cloud and networking companies that are
committed to discounting or waiving data transfer fees (also known
as bandwidth fees) for shared customers. The Bandwidth Alliance now
includes 20 partners, all committed to providing the most
performant and cost-efficient experience for mutual customers.
“We launched the Bandwidth Alliance to give our customers a
faster, more secure, and more reliable Internet, without the awful
fees that have historically bogged them down,” said Arjunan
Rajeswaran, Head of Strategic Partnerships at Cloudflare. “Alibaba
Cloud has built an impressive business that considers its customers
first, and together, we will give our joint customers the best
Internet experience possible.”
By joining the Bandwidth Alliance, customers using both Alibaba
Cloud Object Storage, and Cloudflare products, will have their data
egress fees waived outside mainland China if OSS products are
purchased from alibabacloud.com.
"In addition to waiving the egress fee, Alibaba Cloud will also
waive up to 100 million API requests, and 10TB image processing
fees for all customers in regions outside of China after joining
the Bandwidth Alliance,” said Alex Chen, Alibaba Cloud Senior
Director of Product Management. “Alibaba Cloud’s initiative of the
elimination of ‘request fees’ is an industry game changer. The
combined solution will pass on massive savings to our customers,
and at the same time, eliminate complexity in managing storage
cost.”
Alibaba Cloud continues to champion millions of businesses in
more than 21 regions and countries through world-class
infrastructure, advanced analytics tools, and a thriving ecosystem.
Its hybrid cloud model services enterprises, developers, and
government organizations around the world, and makes them a
valuable partner within the Bandwidth Alliance.
Cloudflare has long had an international presence, with
co-location facilities in 200 cities across more than 90 countries,
including China.
Cloudflare also recently partnered with Cherry Servers, a
provider of bare metal cloud services in Europe, as part of the
Bandwidth Alliance.
