Case Study: Lenskart achieves 72% bandwidth savings and blocks 30,000 threats per month with Cloudflare

Lenskart’s site clearly with the power of Cloudflare

Lenskart, founded in 2010, is India’s fastest-growing eyewear retailer combining online sales, physical stores, and a home eye check-up service. Rapid growth—over 11 TB of monthly traffic and more than a million customers monthly—made the site a bigger target for security threats and DDoS attacks, while latency risked hurting conversions; the team wanted to avoid diverting engineers to build and maintain infrastructure.

Lenskart adopted Cloudflare’s performance and security network, using its CDN (200+ cities) and Railgun to speed content delivery and cache assets—cutting bandwidth use by 72% (~8 TB/month)—and deployed Cloudflare’s Web Application Firewall and DDoS mitigation to block ~30,000 threats per month. The result: faster, more reliable global site performance, lower bandwidth costs, stronger data protection, and engineers freed to focus on core business.
