Link infrastructure
Every short link,
delivered.
Relay is a lightweight redirect layer that sits at the edge and resolves short links the moment they're requested — no server round-trip, no database lookup, no waiting room.
How it works
-
01
Request
A visitor opens a short link. Cloudflare's edge answers instantly — there's no origin server to wait on.
-
02
Route
The redirect layer reads the short code and resolves it against the current routing table.
-
03
Deliver
The visitor lands on the destination, with the original short code and query string preserved.
Edge-served
Runs on Cloudflare's global network, so a redirect is never far from the visitor requesting it.
No tracking
Relay doesn't set cookies, run analytics scripts, or profile visitors. It routes and gets out of the way.
Built for uptime
A static redirect layer has nothing to crash — no database connection to lose, no server process to restart.
