Platform Selection Guide (2026)

Platform	Best For	Free Tier	Cold Start
Vercel	Next.js, static, serverless functions	✅	~200ms
Cloudflare Workers	Ultra-low latency APIs, edge logic	✅ (100k req/day)	~0ms
Cloudflare Pages	Static + full-stack (via Workers)	✅	~0ms

Multi-Entry Point Deployment Architecture

For SaaS applications, separate deployments for each entry point:

myapp.com         → Vercel (Marketing/Landing — Next.js static)
app.myapp.com     → Vercel (SaaS App — Next.js dynamic)
admin.myapp.com   → Vercel (Super Admin — Next.js, restricted access)
api.myapp.com     → Railway/Fly.io (Backend API — long-running)
cdn.myapp.com     → Cloudflare R2 (Static assets & user uploads)

Vercel — Next.js Deployment

Multi-Domain Configuration

// vercel.json
{
  "rewrites": [
    { "source": "/(.*)", "destination": "/$1" }
  ],
  "headers": [
    {
      "source": "/(.*)",
      "headers": [
        { "key": "X-Content-Type-Options", "value": "nosniff" },
        { "key": "X-Frame-Options", "value": "DENY" },
        { "key": "Strict-Transport-Security", "value": "max-age=63072000; includeSubDomains; preload" }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Edge Middleware for Tenant Routing

// middleware.ts — runs at the edge before every request
import { NextResponse } from 'next/server';
import type { NextRequest } from 'next/server';

export function middleware(request: NextRequest) {
  const hostname = request.headers.get('host') ?? '';
  const subdomain = hostname.split('.')[0];

  // Route admin subdomain — enforce strict auth check
  if (subdomain === 'admin') {
    const adminToken = request.cookies.get('admin-session')?.value;
    if (!adminToken) {
      return NextResponse.redirect(new URL('/login', request.url));
    }
  }

  // Identify tenant from subdomain for multi-tenant apps
  if (subdomain !== 'www' && subdomain !== 'app' && subdomain !== 'admin') {
    const response = NextResponse.next();
    response.headers.set('x-tenant-slug', subdomain);
    return response;
  }

  return NextResponse.next();
}

export const config = {
  matcher: ['/((?!_next/static|_next/image|favicon.ico).*)'],
};

Cloudflare Workers — Edge APIs

Hono on Cloudflare Workers

// src/index.ts
import { Hono } from 'hono';
import { cors } from 'hono/cors';
import { rateLimit } from '@/middleware/rateLimit';

const app = new Hono<{ Bindings: Env }>();

app.use('*', cors({ origin: ['https://app.myapp.com'] }));
app.use('/api/*', rateLimit(100)); // 100 req/min via KV

app.get('/api/health', (c) => c.json({ status: 'ok', region: c.env.CF_REGION }));

app.get('/api/data', async (c) => {
  // Access Cloudflare D1 (SQLite at edge)
  const result = await c.env.DB.prepare('SELECT * FROM items LIMIT 20').all();
  return c.json(result.results);
});

export default app;

Cloudflare Workers AI (On-Device Edge Inference)

Run AI models directly at Cloudflare's edge — no external API calls needed:

export default {
  async fetch(request: Request, env: Env) {
    const { text } = await request.json() as { text: string };

    // Run Llama 3 or Mistral at the edge
    const response = await env.AI.run('@cf/meta/llama-3.1-8b-instruct', {
      messages: [
        { role: 'system', content: 'You are a helpful assistant.' },
        { role: 'user', content: text }
      ],
      stream: true,
    });

    return new Response(response, {
      headers: { 'Content-Type': 'text/event-stream' }
    });
  }
};

Available models on Workers AI:

@cf/meta/llama-3.1-8b-instruct — Fast general-purpose chat
@cf/mistral/mistral-7b-instruct-v0.2 — Fast instruction model
@cf/baai/bge-small-en-v1.5 — Text embedding (for RAG)
@cf/stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0 — Image generation

Railway — Bun / Node.js Long-Running Services

# Dockerfile for Railway (Bun runtime)
FROM oven/bun:1.2-alpine
WORKDIR /app
COPY package.json bun.lockb ./
RUN bun install --frozen-lockfile
COPY . .
EXPOSE 3000
CMD ["bun", "run", "src/server.ts"]

# railway.toml
[build]
builder = "DOCKERFILE"

[deploy]
startCommand = "bun run src/server.ts"
healthcheckPath = "/health"
healthcheckTimeout = 10
restartPolicyType = "ON_FAILURE"

Environment Variables & Secrets Management

Vercel: Use Vercel's built-in secrets panel — supports preview/production scoping.
Cloudflare: Use wrangler secret put SECRET_NAME or the dashboard.
Railway: Use Railway's variable groups for shared secrets across services.
Never commit .env files — use .env.example as documentation only.

Caching Strategy

// Vercel: Cache API responses at the edge
export async function GET() {
  const data = await fetchData();
  return Response.json(data, {
    headers: {
      'Cache-Control': 'public, s-maxage=60, stale-while-revalidate=300',
    }
  });
}

// Cloudflare: Use Cache API
const cache = caches.default;
const cached = await cache.match(request);
if (cached) return cached;

Implementasi Pola Kunci (TypeScript)

1. Edge Middleware untuk Routing Subdomain & Tenant (Next.js 15)

// middleware.ts
import { NextResponse } from 'next/server';
import type { NextRequest } from 'next/server';

export function middleware(request: NextRequest) {
  const hostname = request.headers.get('host') ?? '';
  const subdomain = hostname.split('.')[0];

  // Rute subdomain admin — tegakkan pemeriksaan otentikasi ketat
  if (subdomain === 'admin') {
    const sesiAdmin = request.cookies.get('admin-session')?.value;
    if (!sesiAdmin) {
      return NextResponse.redirect(new URL('/masuk', request.url));
    }
  }

  // Identifikasi tenant dari subdomain pada aplikasi multi-tenant
  if (subdomain !== 'www' && subdomain !== 'app' && subdomain !== 'admin') {
    const response = NextResponse.next();
    response.headers.set('x-tenant-slug', subdomain);
    return response;
  }

  return NextResponse.next();
}

export const config = {
  matcher: ['/((?!_next/static|_next/image|favicon.ico).*)'],
};

2. Cloudflare Workers AI (Inferensi AI di Edge)

export default {
  async fetch(request: Request, env: Env) {
    const { teks } = (await request.json()) as { teks: string };

    // Jalankan inferensi Llama 3.1 langsung di edge tanpa server eksternal
    const response = await env.AI.run('@cf/meta/llama-3.1-8b-instruct', {
      messages: [
        { role: 'system', content: 'Anda adalah asisten AI yang akurat.' },
        { role: 'user', content: teks },
      ],
      stream: true,
    });

    return new Response(response, {
      headers: { 'Content-Type': 'text/event-stream' },
    });
  },
};

3. Railway Dockerfile untuk Runtime Bun Berkecepatan Tinggi

FROM oven/bun:1.2-alpine
WORKDIR /app
COPY package.json bun.lockb ./
RUN bun install --frozen-lockfile
COPY . .
EXPOSE 3000
CMD ["bun", "run", "src/server.ts"]
