The Evolution of VPN: A Comparison Between Cloudflare and Pangolin
Traditional VPNs, based on a central server, have disadvantages in modern, diversely connected networks. An alternative is meshing VPN networks, which establish direct, encrypted peer-to-peer connections between devices. This architecture results in significantly lower latency and a more robust network without a central point of failure.
In this TechTalk, Bas Kraai compares two leading examples: Cloudflare’s commercial, large-scale solution and Pangolin, a flexible open-source alternative. He’ll walk through both solutions and examine how they work, along with their pros and cons.
