Serverless edge · Cloud Platforms
Serverless functions and full-stack apps running on Cloudflare's edge network.
Checked against Cloudflare Workers's official pages on 1 Nov 2026. Free tiers change, so confirm before you commit.
Free plan allows 100,000 requests a day with free static assets and free tiers of KV and D1.
| Limit | Free plan |
|---|---|
| Requests | 100,000 / day |
| CPU time | 10 ms per request |
| Static asset requests | Free and unlimited |
| KV | 100k reads, 1k writes / day, 1 GB |
| D1 | 5 GB, 5M rows read / day |
Each request gets only 10 ms of CPU, which heavy server-side rendering can exceed.

Deno Deploy, Northflank, Wasmer Edge. Compare their limits on this page or open each one for details.
Edge runtime
Runs JavaScript and TypeScript apps on Deno's global network, deployed from GitHub or the CLI.
The catch: Egress is only 20 GiB a month, far below most static hosts.
Container platform
A developer platform for services, jobs and databases on its cloud or your own.
The catch: Compute and scaling are limited, and egress is billed at $0.06 per GB.
WebAssembly edge
Runs apps compiled to WebAssembly, including PHP and Python sites, on an edge network.
The catch: Your app must run on Wasmer's WebAssembly runtime, which not every library supports.
Serverless platform
Serverless hosting for web apps, APIs and async tasks, with built-in Redis.
The catch: Only 2 GB of outbound data and 60 build minutes a month.
Cloud platform
Hosts web services, static sites, cron jobs and databases from a Git repo.
The catch: The free service sleeps after 15 minutes, so the first visitor waits about a minute.
Container hosting
Deploys a Docker container from GitHub onto Back4app's managed platform.
The catch: 256 MB of RAM is too little for most Node or Python frameworks under load.
