@reconbot yeah, with cachingโ71% cache misses on the Vercel side. ~85% cache *hits* from CloudFront.

@zachleat all CDNs are not created equal when it comes to cache eviction.
Yet another thing often selected because of some flashy feature or promise that has knock-on significant impact on origin load and financial implications
Remember folks: the difference between 95% and 90% cache hit ratio is a doubling of origin traffic!

@zachleat I'm curious if you looked at Google's serverless products. In particular, Cloud Run also has a free tier of a similar size to Lambda, but it makes it easy to run a Docker container of the size you want without having to do the layers thing yourself.
I think the UX is also better, though they expect that you just have a container that answers HTTP, and don't put an API gateway in front of it (no API gateway charges, though).

@evana trying to avoid using docker, for whatever thatโs worth

@zachleat that's fine. I just figured that the packaging might be simpler than some of the other layer options, but I'm already in that ecosystem.

@evana yeah, thatโs fair! Iโll keep it in the brain bank as a possible alternative!
I secretly hope someone writes a load balancer so that I can use all of the free tiers simultaneously

@andy this could all be solved with an even more generous free tier
