What are the cons/limitations of serverless api functions? Is there anything I should be aware of before committing to building my project with a serverless backend?
Tl;dr: You need to make sure that a serverless function doesn't instantiate a new connection. For MYSQL, there is serverless-mysql. I don't have experience with MongoDB sadly, but the caching seems to be on the right track.

Challenge of Serverless: Database Connections
This problem is not specific to Redis, it applies to all databases which rely on TCP connections (Mysql, Postgre, MongoDB etc). You can see the serverless community is creating solutions like serverless-mysql. These are client-side solutions. As Upstash, we have the advantage of implementing and maintaining the server-side. So we decided to mitigate the problem by monitoring the connections and evicting the idle ones. So here the algorithm: As max-concurrent-connection, we have two limits for a database, soft-limit and hard-limit. When a database reaches the soft-limit we start to terminate the idle connections. We continue to accept new connection requests until the hard-limit is reached. If the database reaches the hard limit then we start rejecting new connections.

Next.js development with instant dev-database provisioning
But what if your backend API needs to request data from a database? Well, this is easy enough to do via packages like serverless-mysql that let you initiate connections to a MySQL database from NodeJS. Add the dependency, run your queries in response to an API call in Next.js and then send the results back to the frontend (usually as JSON). Easy.
