Among European Companies That Use a CDN, Nearly 9 in 10 Use Cloudflare

Among European companies using a CDN, Cloudflare dominates the market, fronting 89.6% of detected CDN-using firms, which creates a major shared dependency and concentrates operational risk across a large share of the digital economy. For CIOs and technology leaders, this means a single provider incident can translate into widespread, simultaneous outages, making CDN concentration a strategic resilience issue rather than just a procurement choice. IT organizations should treat the CDN as critical infrastructure and evaluate whether current architecture, failover planning, and vendor diversification are sufficient to reduce systemic exposure.
