Is the dependancy on Cloudflare worth the saved time in infrastructure? Getting a big bare metal and deploying a docker should go a long way.

This implementation sounds fully dependant on a service that Zed has little to say about.

FYI: Cloudflare provides an open source version of their Workers runtime[0], so the lock-in isn't as strong as it once was.

    I think if the end game is to run workers runtime then they could also run something else from the start.

    Its gonna be hard to compete with the scaling cloudflare offers if they migrate to their own dedicated infra, but it of course would become much cheaper than paying per request
