My Experience with NextJS
I’ve had the privilege of working with NextJS in various environments—both on Vercel and on self-hosted setups. One of the key aspects of my work has been balancing the benefits of serverless and dockerized environments. In particular, due to my passion for serverless technologies, I have also made use of Serverless OpenNext. This website is hosted using OpenNext.
In addition to practical implementation, I’ve written a few blog posts on NextJS performance, where I cover topics such as optimizing page loads, server-side rendering (SSR), static site generation (SSG), and the impact of different hosting solutions on application speed and reliability.
NextJS Hosting: Vercel and Self-Hosted Solutions
When it comes to NextJS hosting, I’ve worked with both Vercel (NextJS’ native hosting platform) and self-hosted setups. Vercel is an outstanding solution for most projects due to its built-in optimizations and global content delivery network (CDN), making it ideal for rapid deployments and seamless scaling.
I also have extensive experience with self-hosted NextJS applications, which offer more control and flexibility, especially in cases where custom infrastructure or specific deployment pipelines are required. In self-hosted scenarios, I’ve used both dockerized solutions and serverless approaches, tailoring the infrastructure to the needs of each project, while maintaining high performance and uptime.
