Cloudflare has been building a micro-AWS/Vercel competitor and I love it; i.e., serverless functions, queues, sqlite, kv store, object store (R2), etc.

- camkego 3y agoI would love to see a good blog post or article on Cloudflares KV store. I just checked it out, and it reports eventual consistency, so it sounds like it might be based upon CRDTs, but I'm just guessing.
- davidjfelix 3y agoFWIW, Vercel is at least partially backed by cloudflare services under the hood.
- zwily 3y agoRight - Vercel's edge functions are just cloudflare workers with a massive markup.
- chatmasta 3y agoVercel doesn't offer any of that, without major caveats (e.g. must use Next.js to get a serverless endpoint). And to the degree they do offer any of it, it's mostly built on infrastructure of other companies, including Cloudflare.

- mike_d 3y agoCloudflare is just reimplementing every service that Akamai has had for 10 years. The only difference is Cloudflare is going after the <$100/mo customer.
