  • workers.cloudflare.com

    The Cloudflare Workers website.

    Server functions may encounter performance issues due to Lambda cold starts, impacting user response time. Some providers have minimal delays (like Cloudflare Workers due to V8 engine), while others require additional steps. For instance, one way to mitigate this is by periodically invoking the server function, although this would require investigation and potential costs.

  • coolify

    An open-source & self-hostable Heroku / Netlify / Vercel alternative.

    With a serverful approach, you can avoid these drawbacks, and the main challenge lies in selecting the platform that aligns with your requirements. Options may include AWS, Render, DigitalOcean, and others. While VPS is also an option, it's generally not recommended due to the significant setup and maintenance overhead involved (logging, monitoring, CI/CD pipelines, etc.). However, you can make your life easier by leveraging tools like Coolify that help managing your VPS.
