I'm not sure your organization's setup with Netlify but isn't the whole point of Serverless to be... "serverless"? I could migrate twice the amount of properties you have to another provider in less than 3 hours...

I get your frustration but maybe cut some slack. If anything is mission critical, you should have had a backup plan if Netlify, Vercel, Cloudflare, or something else.



We use(d) Netlify for the frontend. I agree, our mistake was believing Netlify could be used for more than toy websites and took care of backup plans for us. Clearly they do not.


I do believe you to be trolling now by saying that. If not, congrats on the valuable lesson!


Not trolling, just very frustrated. But yes a valuable lesson.


What's keeping you from migrating your frontends? Shouldn't that take a couple of hours at worst?


It's not just migrating the front-end if they're also using other functionalities like Netlify functions, forms, authentications etc. Netlify is not just static file hosting.
