Deploying to Vercel looks amazing.

I really hope Vercel keeps investing in hosting backends! Such an underrated use case. It is such an improvement to the considerably more manual options like managing all of the infrastructure and CI/CD on AWS directly.

yeah i'd need this as well ! Deploying a complete API server (not serverless) on Vercel would be awesome

Is it even possible? As they said, on Pro subscription, they limit long running services to 5 minutes.

Does anyone know how this compares to Cloudflare Workers in terms of performance, latency, pricing etc?

@cayt3r 4 ай бұрын

It's always hard to compete with Cloudflare on the pricing front. They own the network which can reduce the egress fee significantly. Vercel is mostly wrapping around the providers like AWS, Cloudflare to provide better DX. In any case, if you are using Vercel, you should think of it as outsourcing your DevOps/Platform team to them to provide a modernised DX that builds on top of serverless technology. It's essentially a DevOps or Platform Engineering as a service, and the price definitely will be higher than Cloudflare, it's still business profit in the picture despite the DX improvement.

I found Vercel serverless functions very flaky. It started receiving empty JSON body from Discord webhook interactions suddenly without prior notice or any code change from my end. The fault might not be from the Discord side since I just switched to a VPS and it worked fine there.
