Alternatives to Supabase Edge Functions

Cloudflare Workers
Decision brief →
Step-up / general edge runtime

Cloudflare Workers is the step-up when edge performance and global distribution matter more than Supabase ecosystem integration. Workers run at 300+ edge locations vs Supabase's regional deployment, with faster cold starts and a more mature KV/Durable Objects storage layer.

Vercel Functions
Decision brief →
Step-sideways / web platform DX

Vercel Functions fits frontend teams already deploying on Vercel who want server-side logic collocated with their Next.js or React app—without managing a separate Supabase project or database dependency.

AWS Lambda
Decision brief →
Step-up / ecosystem breadth

AWS Lambda is the step-up to full serverless power when Supabase Edge Functions' runtime constraints (Deno, 150ms CPU limit) become a ceiling. Lambda handles longer-running jobs, broader language support, and deeper AWS ecosystem integration.
