Pricing Change History (1 recorded)

Data correction - Not a change by Cloudflare KV. An Internet Archive copy of its page from 2026-03-08 already states the terms this record called new, and our listing of 2026-03-21 did not match them. Our re-read of 2026-09-02 recorded the difference as a change. Source ↗
Before: Key-value store at the edge — 100K reads/day, 1K writes/day, 1 GB storage. Eventually consistent with global replication
After: Free plan includes 100,000 keys read/day, 1,000 keys written/day, 1,000 keys deleted/day, 1,000 list requests/day, and 1 GB stored data. All limits reset daily at 00:00 UTC.

How Cloudflare KV compares against every one of the 3 we list, not against a selection of them. A surface with room for every member of a tied set may rotate their order. A surface with room for only some of them names none of them, because which ones it named would be the claim, and a claim seeded on the date is not the one we serve tomorrow. How we decide this.
