Vercel

About Vercel

Vercel is a web and API platform designed for developers and teams to build, deploy, and scale web applications and AI-powered workloads with global delivery and integrated deployment workflows. It enables Git-based deployments and previews, including automatic builds on push and preview environments for pull requests to test changes before merging. The platform supports edge and serverless compute through Edge Functions and Routing Middleware, allowing server-side logic to run closer to users and customize request handling. Performance delivery and optimization are achieved via a globally distributed CDN, Incremental Static Regeneration (ISR), and image and video optimization. Vercel provides backend building blocks and observability tools, including managed Postgres and key-value databases, Vercel Blob object storage, and analytics/monitoring for performance and tracing. Its framework-aware deployment model supports over 35 frameworks, and it offers features tailored for multi-tenant products such as custom domains, wildcard subdomains, rolling releases, and instant rollback for safer deployments.
