Cloudflare 2023 Year in Review special edition
In this week's program, we discuss some of the trends from our Cloudflare Radar 2023 Year in Review. João Tomé is joined by our Head of Data Insights, David Belson, to shed light on the Internet's patterns and trends as observed through Cloudflare's global network.
We cover traffic insights and trends, connectivity and speed, and security. There's also time to explore the most popular Internet services. We answer questions about which generative AI services were most popular, how X/Twitter performed (there's a potential football/soccer trend), and also its competitors like Threads. There's also a surprising e-commerce success called Temu, which outperformed Shein in our rankings, as well as trends in crypto, the metaverse, and those related to Taylor Swift.
In the short segment "Ask the CTO," our CTO, John Graham-Cumming, addresses some audience questions regarding cultural differences in how tech companies operate in Europe versus the US, the evolution of the Internet in the coming years, and the potential impact of some of Cloudflare’s announcements on the industry.
