Big fan of Cloudflare but I wish they would stick to descriptive product names.

Good: Workers, KV, Durable Objects, Cron Triggers

Bad: Spectrum, Zaraz, R2, D1



Naming is hard.

> Zaraz

That's the name of the company they acquired. Though, I do agree that more descriptive naming is nice.

E.g.

Zaraz = SafeXXS

D1 = LDS (light database system)

R2 = ObjectStore

Spectrum = Reverse Proxy
