Next.js
Better performance
Less code shipped to the browser means better performance on any network.
No configuration
Define your application's global infrastructure directly from your code.
Seamless staging
Get the full picture of how your code works in production.
Dynamic at the speed of static
The benefits of serverless compute, with the speed of global replication. Personalize experiences for each user without the overhead of added infrastructure maintenance or latency.
Powered by the Edge Runtime
Vercel is working with partners from across the industry to develop open standards for Edge Compute, and provide everyone with the tools to build for the future of web infrastructure.
Learn moreYour choice of language at the Edge
Build your functions with JavaScript, TypeScript, or any language that compiles to WebAssembly (Wasm).
Deploy with your data or globally
Deploy your functions globally or in a single region to minimize latency to your customers or to your data fetching at the edge.
code example
Hello World at the Edge
A demo Next.js app running on Vercel Edge Functions.
Uses Next.js
“We can show the control or experiment version of a page immediately instead of using third-party scripts. This results in better performance and removes the likelihood of flickering/layout shifts.”
Jillian Anderson Slate
Software Engineer, SumUp
Compute before the cache
When compute happens instantly, routing decisions can be made before the cache. Making A/B testing and feature flagging possible without added third-party scripts or client-side JavaScript.
How edge middleware works
Middleware is designed to run before serving requests from the edge cache, to enable instant rewrites and redirects.
When deployed to Vercel, Middleware is automatically configured as a special set of Edge Functions that are deployed globally with zero cold boots.

Fast, flexible personalization
A/B testing and Feature Flags
The first impressions of a site are made in the first 50 milliseconds of viewing. With Edge Middleware, users will only see what you want them to see.
Geolocation
Safely pre-deploy multiple versions of your site and route users to the correct version at runtime—without any delays.

Full routing & access control
Bot Protection
Prevent unwanted traffic spikes and protect against attacks by using integrations with bot detection, like DataDome, that allow you to check who is visiting your site.
Authentication
With simple authentication from a single route, you can check for cookies and perform rewrites at the edge, always ensuring you’re sending users to the correct version of the page.
