Comment on Show HN: Deploy Next.js to AWS

Comments

Awesome! I'm glad there are more options for folks deploying Next.js apps. For what it's worth, the majority of Next.js apps we see deployed are self-hosted using a Node.js server[1] or Docker[2]. Would love to hear more your opinion why SST instead of one of these :)

To make sure I'm understanding SST, it builds off serverless-nextjs[3], correct? And then ads the features listed above on top, most notably CDK support?

Yeah exactly, it builds on parts of serverless-nextjs.

It's pretty much to run it on serverless infrastructure as opposed to on containers. And to take advantage of Lambda@Edge.
