June 2025 marks the 11th anniversary of Project Galileo, Cloudflare’s initiative to provide free cybersecurity protection to vulnerable organizations working in the public interest around the world. From independent media and human rights groups to community activists, Project Galileo supports those often targeted for their essential work in human rights, civil society, and democracy building. A lot has changed since we marked the 10th anniversary of Project Galileo. Yet, our commitment remains the same: help ensure that organizations doing critical work in human rights have access to the tools they need to stay online. We believe that organizations, no matter where they are in the world, deserve reliable, accessible protection to continue their important work without disruption. ...

Out of nearly 1,200 respondents around the world, only 8% qualified as highly mature after taking the HashiCorp State of Cloud Strategy survey. In the survey, we identified a number of practices that indicated an organization’s cloud agility and the maturity of their cloud practices. Over the past decade, we’ve seen thousands of enterprises adopt cloud and navigate their digital transformation. What we’ve found is that every organization's path to cloud adoption follows a predictable pattern. We’ve taken the learnings from those thousands of customer conversations and several years of research, and we’ve distilled our findings down to a handful of questions. ...

Today was my last full day on this European trip, and I had a few more customer presentations to go. It’s fascinating (and not suprising) that most folks want guidance on AI rollouts more than anything else. [blog] My first vibecoding project (AI experiments)). Tom the tech writer had a problem to solve, and wanted to build out a solution, even if he didn’t understand all the generated code. Good lessons along the way. ...

Database schema design plays a crucial role in determining how quickly queries run, how easily features are implemented, and how well things perform at scale. Schema design is never static. What works at 10K users might collapse at 10 million. The best architects revisit schema choices, adapting structure to scale, shape, and current system goals. Done right, schema design can become a great asset for the system. It accelerates product velocity, reduces data duplication debt, and shields teams from late-stage refactors. Done wrong, it bottlenecks everything: performance, evolution, and sometimes entire features. ...

By Alex Hutter, Alexandre Bertails, Claire Wang, Haoyuan He, Kishore Banala, Peter Royal, Shervin Afshar As Netflix’s offerings grow — across films, series, games, live events, and ads — so does the complexity of the systems that support it. Core business concepts like ‘actor’ or ‘movie’ are modeled in many places: in our Enterprise GraphQL Gateway powering internal apps, in our asset management platform storing media assets, in our media computing platform that powers encoding pipelines, to name a few. Each system models these concepts differently and in isolation, with little coordination or shared understanding. While they often operate on the same concepts, these systems remain largely unaware of that fact, and of each other. ...

In today's digital landscape, enterprise organizations face significant challenges in managing cryptographic keys. The shift towards multi-cloud environments and hybrid infrastructures has introduced complexities in key management, often leading to fragmented security practices. This fragmentation is further exacerbated by the need to adapt to existing workflows to accommodate cloud adoption. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) says that the management of cryptographic keys becomes increasingly complex in cloud environments due to differences in ownership and control between cloud consumers and providers. ...
