The Deno team is joining Cloudflare to advance server-side JavaScript development. The team will discontinue separate Deno runtime and Deploy service development, instead focusing on integrating Deno's innovations into Cloudflare's Workers and Durable Objects platform through a new programming model called celld.
Cloudflare announces Deno is joining the company. Cloudflare defends its Workers platform against lock-in criticism, arguing the design is simply better for cloud applications. The company open-sourced its Workers Runtime (workerd) to enable portability and now partners with Deno to improve ecosystem tooling around it.
A developer was charged $10,811.41 by Cloudflare after a Durable Object alarm entered an infinite loop, performing 6 trillion reads and writes. The company denied a refund request and offered no spending limits to prevent the runaway costs, prompting the developer to migrate all projects to self-hosted infrastructure.
