Waiting Room Event Scheduling protects your site during online events

What's this blog post about?

Cloudflare has introduced a new feature called "Waiting Room Event Scheduling" for its enterprise customers, allowing them to schedule changes to their waiting room's settings and custom queueing page ahead of time. This feature is designed to help manage traffic during online events such as seasonal sales, open registration periods, product drops, ticket sales, etc. The new queuing methods - Reject and Passthrough - give customers more options for controlling user flow before, during, and after their online events. Event Scheduling also includes a pre-queue feature that adds extra protection against traffic spikes that can cause a site to crash.
