🤖 Cloudflare

Cloudflare is a global cloud services provider that offers a suite of features, including a Content Delivery Network (CDN) and a reverse proxy. These services enhance the security, performance, and reliability of websites and applications.

Workers

Cloudflare Workers are serverless functions that execute code on Cloudflare's global edge network. By running code geographically closer to users, Workers significantly reduce latency and improve application performance. They are defined within the cloudflare directory of the repository and are deployed as part of the standard release process.

DNS records

Feature environment deployments create Cloudflare DNS records for the Public API, Admin, App, MCP, and documentation endpoints. Azure custom domain verification also creates asuid.* TXT records for the container app endpoints.

The scheduled cleanup pipeline removes DNS records for closed pull request environments through the cloudflare remove-dns tool command. The cleanup command treats a zone-relative Cloudflare record name, such as asuid.publicapi-ocp-pr-12345, as equivalent to its fully qualified name, such as asuid.publicapi-ocp-pr-12345.core-suite.io, so stale TXT verification records are removed together with the related endpoint records.

OAuth redirect URI worker

This worker handles OAuth authentication flows by acting as a smart redirector. It examines the state parameter in an incoming request and intelligently forwards the user to the correct HTTP-triggered Azure Function.

This dynamic routing ensures that authentication requests are directed to the appropriate environment, whether it's a production, acceptance, or feature-specific instance.
