Cloudflare, the security, performance, and reliability company helping to build a better Internet, announced that Tokyo, Japan, is the home of its newest Asia-Pacific office.

Cloudflare first invested in Japan nearly a decade ago, expanding its network into Tokyo in 2010, just months after launching.

"As the third largest economy, and one of the most Internet-connected countries in the world, Japan was a clear choice when considering expansion locations for our next APAC office," said Matthew Prince, co-founder and CEO of Cloudflare.

With more than 27 million Internet properties on Cloudflare's network, the company already has many customers in the APAC region and in Japan, specifically, including Sony Music Axis Inc. Cloudflare has also partnered with Accelia, Classmethod, D-zero, Domo, Mitsui Knowledge Industry, Spelldata, and GlobalDots Japan GK in Japan to enable joint customers in the country.

"More than 90 percent of Japan's population uses the Internet and Japan is home to 52 of the Fortune 500 companies," said Masa Aoba, Head of Japan at Cloudflare.
