Serverless Express VS Webiny

An example is Serverless Express, one of a handful of Components that are part of today’s release. You can use it to rapidly build Express.js applications on AWS Lambda and AWS HTTP API, to deliver an API that auto-scales massively, and only charges you when it runs ($0.0000002 and $0.0000009 per request). - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

Announcing **Serverless Express**, a Serverless Framework offering enabling you to easily host and manage Express.js applications on AWS Lambda and the new AWS HTTP API, which is 60% faster and 71% cheaper than their initial API Gateway product. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago

Even Strapi needs to be hosted somewhere, and that usually involves a recurring fee. I've had great success over the past 2 years building blogs using http://webiny.com, and because they get low traffic, I've only ever had 1 bill from AWS that was around 80 cents US. Source: almost 2 years ago

Yeah I hear you, SAAS CMS platforms can get prohibitively expensive really quickly after the initial free tier expires. I've found hosting Strapi (or similar) on Heroku has saved me the cost of keeping a server instance running, which usually would cost $5-10 per month. However, the most cost effective for me so far has been Webiny. It's serverless so you install it on AWS and typically don't pay as much (if... Source: about 2 years ago

Otherwise if you want a framework to build on, there's Redwood (which works particularly well on Netlify and Vercel) or Webiny (for AWS, Azure and others). - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago
