An API for MoQ: provision your own isolated relays
Engineers can now use Cloudflare's global MoQ infrastructure for production applications requiring confidentiality and role-based access, rather than just protocol testing. This removes the need to deploy, scale, or load-balance dedicated media servers, allowing low-latency publish/subscribe applications to operate globally through a simple API configuration.

The new API allows developers to provision isolated MoQ relays and issue separate, revocable tokens for publishing and subscribing.
Provisioning a relay creates an isolated scope across Cloudflare's existing global network instantly, rather than spinning up dedicated containers or virtual machines.
Cloudflare's MoQ network now supports draft-14 and draft-16 of the MoQ Transport protocol with authentication, and remains free to use during the beta period.
