Pros & Cons
Cloudflare
Pros
- The free plan includes unmetered DDoS protection, a CDN, a WAF and universal SSL.
- R2 object storage charges no egress fees.
- Workers has very low entry pricing: a $5 monthly minimum and $0.30 per additional million requests.
- The Business plan adds a 100 percent uptime SLA and PCI DSS compliance for $200 a month billed annually.
Cons
- Reviewers report slow support on Free and Pro, which have no chat or phone support.
- Global outages in November and December 2025 disrupted many sites at the same time.
- Reviewers report billing problems, such as charges after cancelling add-ons.
- It offers no traditional shared hosting, VPS or dedicated servers, so you still need an origin host for conventional workloads.
NVIDIA DGX Cloud
Pros
- Clusters are co-engineered with each major cloud (AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, OCI) and come with NVIDIA's full software stack.
- Customers get access to NVIDIA experts, which is rare among GPU cloud providers.
- Lepton gives a single workflow across many GPU providers, with region choice for data sovereignty.
- Through build.nvidia.com, developers can use prebuilt NIM microservices and serverless endpoints without managing clusters.
Cons
- NVIDIA publishes no prices, and the core service requires a negotiated private offer.
- Review-site summaries repeatedly describe the pricing as expensive.
- Press reports say NVIDIA has scaled back DGX Cloud as a hyperscaler rival, so its direction is uncertain.
- Lepton access requires an application, and NVIDIA controls the allocation layer between you and the partner providers.
