I wanted to share a milestone: I ve successfully scaled a web platform to 1 Million+ monthly active users using a completely serverless, "Zero-Cost" architecture.
The Tech Stack:
Frontend: Next.js (Deployed on Vercel/Cloudflare Pages)
Backend: Supabase (PostgreSQL) for scalable data management.
Automation: Integrated Gemini AI to automate content generation and SEO metadata.
Deployment: GitHub CI/CD for seamless updates.
Key Achievement: Managed to maintain a 90+ PageSpeed score and handle massive concurrency without spending a rupee on servers. By leveraging AI and Edge computing, I ve optimized the entire pipeline for both speed and scale.
