Hmm I read the post. Cloudfare handles almost 1 trillion requests per day, Google does that per year. However, the request types are different, Cloudfare handles a variety of requests like caching and forwarding, while Google requests are about serving complete web pages. May be for the webserver purpose like Google Nginx may suffice?

I'm sorry but those numbers can't be right. Google Analytics is embedded in enough sites to hit a trillion hits a day.
Cloudflare serves web pages bro because they proxy the bytes between servers from origin to eyeball
