When the app needs to run close to users globally, or when an isolate-per-request model fits the workload better than Node functions. R2 for storage, D1 for SQLite-at-the-edge.

Capabilities 3

What it actually does — grouped by capability family.

  • Sandboxed code execution (primary capability)
  • Model inference / serving (secondary capability)
  • App / agent deployment (primary capability)

Pros & cons

  • R2 object storage with no egress fees
  • Global edge runtime, low latency
  • Workers + D1 + R2 + KV in one platform
  • Generous free tier
  • Workers isolate model isn't full Node.js
  • D1/Durable Objects still maturing
  • Some products have CPU-time limits
  • Edge-first model needs app rethinking

    Postgres-based backend with auth, storage, and edge functions.

    A common default backend when an app needs persistence + auth + realtime. Open-source, self-hostable, very low friction to local dev with the CLI.

    Serverless GPUs. Run training, inference, batch jobs from Python.

    Define cloud workloads in Python, deploy with one command — GPU access on demand, fast cold starts, fair-share pricing. The default 'I need to fine-tune a model from a Jupyter cell' platform.

    Secure, elastic sandboxes for running AI-generated code.

    Infrastructure for executing AI-generated code in isolated sandboxes — each a full composable computer with a dedicated kernel, filesystem, network stack, and allocated CPU, RAM, and disk. Sandboxes start in under 90ms, snapshot for persistence, and are driven programmatically through SDKs (Python, TypeScript, Ruby, Go, Java), an API, and a CLI. AGPL-3.0 and available as a managed service, self-hosted stack, or hybrid where you bring your own compute.
