So happy to see support for running durable objects outside of one provider. Upvoted.
The "durable object" concept has been repeatably demonstrated to be a valuable abstraction.
"Each object is its own SQLite database, addressed by name and replicated to an S3-compatible bucket you own" -- this concept can take you a long way, both in its power and simplicity.
I don't see why not. Somebody once wrote a simple Lambda that spawns a new instance when your spot instance dies so there's always at least one running.
It's super super exciting having an age where many pieces of software can all run with low profiles. Very timely, again, for the unbelievably order of magnitude (and thats 10 to the not 2 to the, for you fellow computer nerds) ish ram crunch we are in. Next up, at some point, ideally we get some v8-like runtimes where we can share libraries across multiple isolates! Separating the shared code from the shared data, so we have multiple instances of the library, seems much harder. (It feels like wasm has some/much promise here and I eagerly await clearer signals that code-sharing while sandboxing is indeed possible)

cloudflare gives you that instant geo-sync across the world that is hard to beat
with Celld do i need to buy bare metal in major continents
thats hard to beat

And yes, celld is isolates! The very lightweight within v8 isolation boundary. Hence the "very low idle cost". The deno team rolled their own new runtime! This one without deno_core!
