I think the biggest thing Cloudflare needs to buy is some sort of Postgres-database service. They've already cornered the market for everything front-end/serverless

Cloudflare could make the biggest impact by doing something similar to AWS DSQL. There are very few options in the multi-region replicated space, and it ties in nicely with their edge workers.

D1 is their bet there but considering hyperdrive, a real Postgres would be cool.

I also wish they expanded jurisdiction more. I worked at companies that couldn't use Cloudflare because of specific location requirements in contracts

  • D1 is a very different product. D1 is designed to be tenant sharded for any real workloads.

    If they bought Neon that'd be a coup.

Yeah. D1 is nice and easy but a serverless postgres offering would make a significant difference.
