I always love hearing Kelsey Hightower speak on subjects and having him here to ask all the questions I had as a Backend Engineer was so solid. Really clear and nicely explained q & a.

Nobody: Vercel: If you want to reuse common functionality, you can just version it and publish it to npm, so your team can import and use it. Everybody: OMG THIS IS GENIUS

What’s the difference between an edge and a redis cache server that’s close to the user?

Since Next.js only offers serverless functions when hosting on Vercel, there'd be around 300ms more delay for fetching some external cache because of the required cold start of the serveless function and the additional fetch. If you use a custom server, edge functions can still be useful to perform some tasks like checking for auth, or pre-fetching the client's geo-location etc. that otherwise would require SSR, while still returning a static build that instantly "pre-"renders the fetched data, which reduces the loading time
