Case Study: Scotch achieves faster performance, easy scaling, and stronger security with Cloudflare

Scotch uses Cloudflare to make their application faster and more secure

Scotch is a web application that teaches programming through real‑world tutorials. As the site rapidly grew—and with 85% of traffic coming from search—the small team needed a low‑cost, easy way to scale infrastructure, serve content as fast as possible, and add secure payments without becoming backend admins.

By adopting Cloudflare’s CDN, load balancing, managed DNS, Railgun, Rocket Loader and Page Rules, Scotch offloaded delivery to a global network, improved load times, and reduced bandwidth costs while avoiding heavy ops work. The result: faster pages, increased pageviews and time on site, seamless scaling, and HTTPS/SSL set up in minutes to support payments.
