Building and Deploying Serverless Applications with NextJS and Vercel
● Serverless Functions
Vercel provides built-in support for serverless functions, which are event-driven, scalable, and automatically managed by the platform. This means you can write and deploy serverless functions using Node.js, without worrying about server provisioning, maintenance, or scaling.

● Global CDN and Edge Network
Vercel’s global content delivery network (CDN) and edge network ensure that your application’s static assets and server-rendered pages are served quickly and efficiently to users around the world. This results in improved performance and reduced latency, leading to an enhanced user experience.
● Continuous Integration
Vercel supports continuous integration (CI) out of the box, automatically building and deploying your application whenever you push changes to your Git repository. This means that your application is always up to date with the latest code, without any manual intervention.
By using Vercel as the deployment platform for your NextJS serverless applications, you can leverage its powerful features, such as serverless functions, global CDN, edge network, and continuous integration, to ensure that your applications are performant, scalable, and easy to manage.
