Automating Data Collection with Apify: From Script to Deployment
Previously, the Apify SDK offered a blend of crawling functionalities and Actor building features. However, a recent update separated these functionalities into two distinct libraries: Crawlee and Apify SDK v3. Crawlee now houses the web scraping and crawling tools, while Apify SDK v3 focuses solely on features specific to building Actors for the Apify platform. This distinction allows for a clear separation of concerns and enhances the development experience for various use cases.

Build and run your Python web scrapers in the cloud with Apify SDK for Python
You can use our open source tools (not only this one, but also Crawlee for example) to build your scrapers and run them on your computer, and then if you need to run them in the cloud, you can upload them to the Apify platform and run them there. Our free tier is good enough for smaller web scraping and automation projects, and if you need more compute resources or proxies, you can go for one of our paid tiers.

How to scrape the web with Puppeteer in 2023
Comfortable scraping and crawling with Puppeteer is better done together with another library. This library is called Crawlee, and it's also free and open-source, just like Puppeteer. Crawlee wraps Puppeteer and grants access to all of Puppeteer's functionality, but also provides useful crawling and scraping tools like error handling, queue management, storages, proxies or fingerprints out of the box.

Lambdas vs EC2
Lambda would be my choice for this. You could even stay within the free tier depending how often you run this process. You can orchestrate puppeteer UI flows in lambda using this package https://github.com/alixaxel/chrome-aws-lambda My team does this and it works great.

Dynamic Open Graph images with Next.js
When requesting the API route, the Next.js serverless function will actually spin up a web browser on the server (a headless instance of Chromium, using chrome-aws-lambda). Next, a webpage will be generated with HTML we can define ourselves. This HTML will be used to construct the image. That means that as a developer we can generate images using HTML and CSS, technologies we are already familiar with!
