Deno Deploy, the serverless platform designed for running JavaScript, TypeScript, and WebAssembly applications at the edge, is moving closer to its General Availability (GA) release. With the launch of Beta 4, the platform has introduced several important updates, including the addition of a paid service plan. This move signals Deno Deploy’s shift toward supporting larger-scale, production-grade applications. While the platform has been popular for its free tier, the introduction of paid plans is aimed at offering more resources and advanced features to meet the demands of developers and businesses.
The Beta 4 release introduces a more comprehensive service model, with the free plan continuing to offer 100,000 requests per day and 100 GiB of data transfer per month, along with GitHub integration. However, for users requiring more capacity, the Pro plan starts at $10 per month and includes up to five million requests per month, with data transfer costs at 30 cents per GiB. Once the five million request threshold is reached, additional requests are billed at $2 per million. This tiered approach provides a clear path for scaling as applications grow in usage, offering greater flexibility for developers.
One of the standout features of Beta 4 is the overhaul of the platform’s dashboard. The new interface allows users to easily manage their applications, with enhanced project analytics, including the ability to view average CPU usage per request. Users can now adjust the time interval for viewing analytics, choosing from 24 hours, seven days, or 30 days, giving them a more granular understanding of their application’s performance. Additionally, the project logs have been redesigned for better readability, and a filter UI is being added for log levels and isolate regions, making it simpler for developers to monitor and debug their applications.
Looking ahead, Deno Deploy has more features in the pipeline, including caching, improved CLI interoperability, and enhanced analytics and logging capabilities. As the platform continues to mature, these additions will offer developers more tools to optimize performance and simplify the deployment process. Deno Deploy’s global reach is also expanding, with the addition of three new European regions—Milan, Madrid, and Paris—bringing the total number of regions to 32. These updates indicate that Deno Deploy is positioning itself as a competitive solution in the serverless and edge computing space, catering to a wide range of use cases from small projects to enterprise-level applications.
