Cloudflare is set to enhance its performance analytics suite by integrating Web Analytics with real user monitoring (RUM) tools and network-level insights, aiming to provide comprehensive, privacy-first monitoring and debugging capabilities. This initiative addresses the complexity of diagnosing and resolving performance issues across multiple Internet layers, from users' devices to servers, without compromising user privacy. By offering detailed visibility into factors affecting latency, such as DNS lookups and server processing times, the new platform will help developers optimize web applications globally. Starting October 15, 2025, Web Analytics will be enabled by default for all free domains, allowing users to track performance metrics in real-time without collecting personal data, except for EU and UK traffic. Cloudflare's approach focuses on correlating client-side metrics with network and origin data, offering actionable insights to improve site performance and user experience. This marks the beginning of a journey to build a unified platform where developers can address performance bottlenecks and innovate, as detailed in their ongoing series, The RUM Diaries.
