AWS WAF vs Cloudflare Spectrum: What are the differences?

Developers describe AWS WAF as "Control which traffic to allow or block to your web application by defining customizable web security rules". AWS WAF is a web application firewall that helps protect your web applications from common web exploits that could affect application availability, compromise security, or consume excessive resources. On the other hand, Cloudflare Spectrum is detailed as "DDoS protection for TCP services". Extend the power of Cloudflare's DDoS, TLS, and IP Firewall to not just your web servers, but also your other TCP-based services, keeping them online and secure. Reduce the ability for attackers to snoop and steal sensitive data. Protect your origin and all TCP services you expose to the Internet.

AWS WAF and Cloudflare Spectrum can be categorized as "Security" tools.
