Netlify deploys hundreds of thousands of Next.js sites – here's what challenging
Discover the 6 key challenges platforms face when supporting Next.js deployments, including the lack of adapter support and undocumented behaviors. Learn how Netlify is working with OpenNext to build a more collaborative future for the open source Next.js framework.
Out of the box, this does not support much of the functionality that makes Next.js powerful at scale: edge middleware, globally persistent page and fetch caching enabling Incremental Static Regeneration and on-demand revalidation, to name a few. This is currently beyond the scope of the build-time adapter discussed between the OpenNext group and Vercel, but we’re optimistic that this increased collaboration in a shared forum will lead to better, easier, simpler, documented deployment options for Next.js developers. By ensuring we conform to tests against the latest canary release, we’re able to incrementally add support for new features and handle upcoming breaking changes (to both documented and undocumented interfaces) before they’re announced and become generally available.
