Cloudflare and the Internet Archive are working together to archive even more public web, saying it will make the web more reliable.
As part of this joint effort, websites using the service Always Online of Cloudflare will be able to allow the ISP to share hostname and URLs with the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine so that their website can be automatically archived.
When a website is except operation, Cloudflare will then be able to retrieve the most recently archived version from the Internet Archive so that a site's content is accessible to users.
"The Internet Archive Wayback Machine has an impressive infrastructure that can archive the web on a scale," said Matthew Prince, CEO and co-founder of Cloudflare.
"Working together, we can take another step toward making the Internet more resilient by stopping them problems of servers for our customers and that in turn will help when a business goes down online.”
According to the Internet Archive, more than 468 billion websites are available to date through the Wayback Machine.
“Αρχειοθετούμε διευθύνσεις URL που προσδιορίζονται μέσω ποικίλων διαφορετικών μεθόδων, όπως την ανίχνευση από λίστες εκατομμυρίων ιστότοπων, που υποβλήθηκαν από χρήστες μέσω της λειτουργίας ” Αποθήκευση της σελίδας τώρα” του Wayback Machine. Η υπηρεσία συλλέγει διευθύνσεις από τα άρθρα της Wikipedia, τα Tweets, and relies on a number of other “signals” and sources, such as news feeds. An additional source of URLs we will have will come from customers of Cloudflare's Cloud Online service," says Wayback Machine director Mark Graham in a Publication on the blog.
