Cloudflare Containers Are Here: Deploy Docker Globally with a Single Command
- Cloudflare Containers are now in public beta, offering global deployment of Docker with simplified management.
- Developers can run various applications globally alongside Workers using a single command.
- The system integrates Workers as entry points routing requests to container-enabled Durable Objects.
- Cloudflare provides the @cloudflare/containers package for easier container management.
- The setup involves defining containers, Durable Object bindings, and migrations in the wrangler.jsonc file.
- Developers extend the Container class in their Worker to configure container settings.
- Two patterns supported are stateful services (routing to specific instances) and stateless services (load balancing across containers).
- The deployment process involves creating a template and deploying it with the wrangler command.
- Billing for Cloudflare Containers is based on pay-for-use pricing, billed for active running time.
- Different instance types are available with corresponding memory, CPU, and disk specifications.
- Billing rates include costs for memory, CPU, and disk usage, with data egress pricing based on regions.
- Future updates include global autoscaling, deeper integrations for accessing various services, and enhanced communication capabilities.
- Cloudflare Containers eliminate the friction between Worker logic and containerized workloads, enabling new possibilities on the platform.
