Announcing Cloudflare K2: Serverless Event Streams

Cloudflare, Thursday, October 1st, 2026

Cloudflare K2, now in public beta, is a serverless event streaming service built on R2 for durable, ordered log streams.

Cloudflare launched K2 in public beta as a durable event streaming primitive on its Developer Platform.

Producers send events to a K2 stream, which stores them as an ordered log built directly on R2 object storage, and consumers can read independently at their own pace, either splitting reads across a group or receiving all messages.

Decoupling producers and consumers avoids dropped events when downstream services are slow or unavailable, without the overhead of running broker clusters, and supports long-term retention.
