Can your workers run Docker containers?



Workers don't run Docker containers intentionally. The goal with Workers is to run with a lower memory overhead (~3 MB) and lower startup time (~5 ms) than you can get with full container isolation. This allows your Worker to run affordably in 150+ locations around the world. In many ways it's the ultimate destination for serverless, running code in a multitenant process where all you manage is your code.


Fair enough. But that's not really the same as what Zeit is providing here.


We currently don't support this, but it may be something we consider in the future.
