Real cost of scaling Nuxt on netlify
I have a web app in Nuxt3 hosted on netlify.
Trying to figure out how the cost will scale as I go live.
The website will get some traffic but is largely brochure but it also serves a rest API that will be accessed via a mobile app. This will get smashed as I scale.
Netlify Pro gives me only 125k serverless function invitations per month. If I have 1000 users (I'm b2c) that's only 4 API calls per user per day... That's not going to work.
Same plan gives me 2 million edge function invocations gives me 600 API calls per user per day .. should be ok. Do I need to use the edge preset for this?
SERVER_PRESET=netlify_edge
I guess I'm just looking for some advice from anyone who has actually scaled out a Nuxt backend. Did you use netlify or similar or go to VPS? Did costs blow out? Did you need to refactor? Any help or refs appreciated

Used both, CF workers and netlify for projects. CF Workers are defo "cheaper" π
Hi @manniL / TheAlexLichter, is it possible to use CF workers if my website is deployed on Vercel too? π±
you'd have to deploy to CF for it
of course you could use CF workers for other services that communicate with your site though
Ohhhh ok, thanks for letting me know Iβll for sure deploy my next project there π
