Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Cloudflare Workers have very powerful but at the same time simple enough API. They comes really handy when you need some computational power on the backend, but for some reason having a separate service seems like an overkill. <br><br>One of the use-cases we embrace is to optimize page loading of our site: proxying request to reduce DNS resolve time &amp; prefetching/preloading and even parallelization of the loading for some critical resources.<br>
Pros and Cons
  • Proxying
  • Html rewriting
  • simple storage on the edge
  • monitoring - no build-in way to have retention for logs
  • service binding - is not well supported for the local development.
Likelihood to Recommend
Good: really best in breed for lambda on the edge. it's much easier to make complex redirects decisions in JS rather than using rewrite rule syntax
Good: wrangler CLI for local development

Bad: no built-in retentions of logs and it's still hard to troubleshoot issues on the edge
