Does that mean when I make a request to reddit or HN, CF fetches the data and I get it through their proxy? Or am I missing something ...
Yes.
Is it going to be beta or alpha, like most Google Cloud services?
Google Product Manager here. Not sure why you think most Google Cloud Services are in beta. The Google Cloud products page [1] lists 17 main products. Two are in alpha (Container Engine, Deployment Manager), one is in beta (Pub/Sub). The rest are fully supported. There are some beta features here and there...but saying "most" are in beta is certainly not correct. [1] https://cloud.google.com/products/
Wait a second. I just clicked though the items on that page, and the following are listed as alpha:
Container Engine
Cloud Dataflow
Cloud Deployment Manager
HTTP/HTTPS Load Balancing
Virtual Private Network
Cloud Pub/Sub
Cloud Monitoring
Cloud Logging

My understanding is that they basically "fast flux" IPs to funnel traffic for targeted attack to a specific data center. So, while you normally may be sharing IPs, if an enterprise customer's website example.com starts getting attacked they will put it on dedicated IPs, then broadcast those IPs from one or two data centers. They will then reroute all other enterprise traffic away from those data centers, thus minimiz…
Thanks for this comment. I guess, along with jgrahamc's sibling comment, you have to make a routing decision based on (source, port) at most if you have a fixed IP, since HTTPS ports are stupidly fixed. That is 32+16 bits of info at most, so an ethernet MACs worth. So now I can clarify my question as follows: with X bits of data, what is the present state-of-the-art latency wrt to routing T Gbps of traffic. And it's…
In order to protect latency to other GET targets, you're going to have to start doing interesting things.
One future solution I can see is multipath-tcp the anomalous traffic, and closing the original connection. But at that point you have to refilter based on genuine vs malicious traffic, and then there's the encrypted state you have to share for the proper stream handover. Ooof... what a nightmare.
At least it's an interesting one. :)

Autoscaler and Instance Groups on compute engine are beta as well.
I wonder if this is one of those strategic deals that would lead to an acquisition. With the push surrounding cloud and Google actively competing hard in this space, it would make a lot of sense.
It would fit in well with their silent yet never ending reach across the internet.

Problem is that (besides for the brand) Cloudflare really has nothing to offer for Google. Google has spent the last 20 years solving the same problems CF is aiming to solve, they've even got a competing service Google PageSpeed that does exactly what CF does, except better (in my personal experience.).

You mean this service? https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/service
PageSpeed Service is in a limited field trial, and is not currently accepting new signups
