Cloudflare KV is basically the exact same. Even the same name.

Cloudflare’s pricing seems more reasonable, though a 1:1 comparison is impossible. Cloudflare reads and writes in every region for the same price, Deno scales price with number of replica regions. Also CF is billed per read/write operation (and supports listing), this is billed per kB read/written.

That all said, if your values are bigger than ~2kB Cloudflare is almost certainly cheaper. And the list (with metadata) operation is quite powerful.

However, single-region means you don’t have to care about synchronization nearly as much, which can be quite annoying. The end user experience will suffer in areas far from your write zone though.

A better comparison might actually be Cloudflare D1, a hosted SQL with per-kB fees, but that’s still beta.



Yes, Deno KV is much closer to D1 than to Cloudflare KV.


Except D1 gives you a full powered SQL interface and DKV gives you “get”, “set”, and transactions.

D1 is also faaaaaar cheaper. Like 3+ orders of magnitude cheaper.
