If you’ve not been miraculously exempt from the Internal Server Error 500, you are likely aware that many websites online aren’t functioning properly today. The cause behind this is a significant outage at Cloudflare, a major internet infrastructure provider that supports a multitude of large websites and platforms.
As one of the most dependable infrastructure providers, Cloudflare’s Content Delivery Network has consistently facilitated the replication of websites across various servers globally, ensuring swift loading times for users everywhere.
Nevertheless, its pivotal role in powering numerous popular apps, websites, and services also positions it as a crucial bottleneck when issues arise, like this morning. This is what occurred, the impacted websites, and Cloudflare’s somewhat inconsistent history regarding these particular attacks.
