Questions & Support

Common Questions

Q: What if Cloudflare is down?
A: Use KV cache as fallback (stale data available for 5+ minutes)

Q: Can I still use external APIs?
A: Yes, service bindings are supplementary. External APIs still work via normal HTTP.

Q: How do I migrate from existing setup?
A: Blue-green deployment: Deploy alongside existing, switch traffic gradually.

Q: Is there a cost cap?
A: Yes, Cloudflare Workers have predictable pricing and optional caps.
