Magic makes your network faster

This post details how Cloudflare's Magic suite (Magic Transit, Magic WAN, Magic Firewall) leverages the company's global network expansion and architecture to significantly improve network performance. It explains how Anycast, ubiquitous service deployment, and advanced routing techniques (beyond traditional BGP) reduce latency and eliminate the 'trombone effect' inherent in legacy network architectures. The post provides concrete examples and test results demonstrating performance gains, and introduces Argo Smart Routing for Packets as a further optimization.
