Global Edge Defense: Cloudflare Enterprise & Argo Smart Routing

Every application hosted on Leapjuice sits behind a hardened Enterprise-grade networking layer. We don't just provide DNS; we provide a global, multi-layered shield that optimizes traffic flow while neutralizing threats before they reach your origin.

The Leapjuice Networking Layer

Our architecture utilizes a "Full Proxy" model. Traffic enters the Cloudflare Global Unicast Network at the nearest PoP (Point of Presence), where it is inspected, filtered, and optimized.

Argo Smart Routing: The Internet’s Waze

Public internet routing is often inefficient, plagued by congestion and flapping BGP routes. Leapjuice enables Argo Smart Routing for all managed applications. Argo uses real-time telemetry from trillions of requests across the Cloudflare network to route your traffic over the fastest, least-congested paths.

• Latency Reduction: On average, Argo reduces time-to-first-byte (TTFB) by 30%.
• Reliability: Automated "around the failure" routing ensures that regional fiber cuts don't take your app offline.

Reducing Origin Load with Edge Cache Reserve

Managed applications like Ghost and Mattermost often struggle when assets (images, JS, CSS) are requested by thousands of concurrent users. Leapjuice utilizes Edge Cache Reserve, a persistent caching layer.

Unlike standard CDN caching, which may "evict" your content from the edge to make room for other sites, Cache Reserve ensures your assets stay pinned in Cloudflare’s global storage. This results in:

1. 99% Cache Hit Ratio: Almost all static requests are served from the edge.
2. Origin Shielding: Your Leapjuice instance only sees actual application logic requests, not asset requests.
3. Egress Savings: Drastically reduced data transfer between the Leapjuice data center and the internet.

Enterprise Security by Default

• WAF (Web Application Firewall): Advanced Managed Rulesets specifically tuned for Cloudron and Leapjuice environments to block SQLi, XSS, and Zero-Day vulnerabilities.
• Bot Management: Behavioral analysis identifies and blocks malicious scrapers while allowing search engine crawlers.
• HTTP/3 (QUIC): Enabled by default to provide superior performance on mobile networks.

Summary

The Leapjuice networking stack is designed for global reach. By integrating Argo Smart Routing and Edge Cache Reserve, we deliver sub-second page loads to users in London, Tokyo, and New York simultaneously, all while keeping your origin server secure and efficient.
