This looks great! We use Strapi for our marketing site at https://articleasset.com https://articleasset.com and have been bitten by the lack of conditional logic before.
Is there any plan to support serverless deployment? We use Nextjs with incremental static regeneration, so will only need to query the cms service a couple times a day.
- jobsdone 4y agoServerless has been asked for quite a few times and we've gone back and forth on it. We want to keep an open mind, but the business case to build it isn't there at the moment. That could change if somebody wants to sponsor that development or some OS devs open a PR or build some porting plugins. It could simplify deployment and have some other benefits, but we always go back to the fact that even with a sleak serverless architecture, you're still hitting a centralized DB. It really weakens the argument for going serverless.
- brycelarkin 4y agoUnderstandable. Appreciate that you all have a monetization strategy already. One of my hesitations with adopting VC-backed open source projects is that a lot of them don’t have a clear business model. We host Strapi on a server, so shouldn’t be a problem.
- xenni 4y agoDepending on the startup time, you can use something like AWS Serverless Express and just wrap the application. If startup takes a little while you can store an instance above the handler code which will be kept alive across invocations of that serverless instance. I've used this to great success in a similar project.
