Case Study: C&A achieves faster, scalable ecommerce with Cloudflare Workers

C&A handles 10x traffic spikes with Cloudflare Workers

C&A, a leading European fashion retailer, faced the challenge of scaling its ecommerce platform to handle unpredictable traffic surges, such as during Black Friday, while ensuring always-on availability and sub-100-millisecond page response times. They needed a nimble, cost-effective infrastructure to support their hybrid retail vision without the operational overhead of managing traditional servers. They turned to vendor Cloudflare for a solution.

Cloudflare implemented its Workers serverless application platform, allowing C&A to build and deploy applications on its global network. This provided exceptional scalability to handle traffic increases of up to tenfold, improved performance with faster page loading, and reduced costs by only paying for the compute used. The solution also included Cloudflare's Web Application Firewall for advanced security. As a result, C&A can now seamlessly scale during peak events and focus on innovation.
