How we rebuilt Next.js with AI in one week

*This post was updated at 12:35 pm PT to fix a typo in the build time benchmarks.

Last week, one engineer and an AI model rebuilt the most popular front-end framework from scratch. The result, vinext (pronounced "vee-next"), is a drop-in replacement for Next.js, built on Vite, that deploys to Cloudflare Workers with a single command. In early benchmarks, it builds production apps up to 4x faster and produces client bundles up to 57% smaller. And we already have customers running it in production. 

The whole thing cost about $1,100 in tokens.

The Next.js deployment problem

Next.js is the most popular React framework. Millions of developers use it. It powers a huge chunk of the production web, and for good reason. The developer experience is top-notch.

But Next.js has a deployment problem when used in the broader serverless ecosystem. The tooling is entirely bespoke: Next.js has invested heavily in Turbopack but if you want to deploy it to Cloudflare, Netlify, or AWS Lambda, you have to take that build output and reshape it into something the target platform can actually run.

If you’re thinking: “Isn’t that what OpenNext does?”, you are correct. Continue reading

PP098: What Goes On Inside a Firewall?

On today’s show, we pop the lid off of a firewall (figuratively speaking) to understand what’s inside. We talk about how a packet moves through various packet-processing elements inside a firewall, how header analysis and de-encapsulation work, which hardware component has the biggest impact on performance, why stateful inspection still matters in an age of...

Interesting: Open Space Events

Following a link in another Martin Fowler’s blog post, I stumbled upon his thoughts on Open Space events – a way to set up self-organizing events.

I’m not sure I’m brave (or young) enough to try it out, but if you’re planning to organize a small gathering (like a local Network Operator Group), this might be an interesting, slightly more structured approach than a Net::Beer event. It would also be nice to know whether someone managed to pull it off in an online format.

AMD Says “Helios” Racks And MI400 Series GPUs On Track For 2H 2026

While releasing an update to its InferenceX AI inference benchmark test, formerly known as InferenceMax and thus far only having Nvidia and AMD testing systems using it, the analysts SemiAnalysis declared correctly that thus far only Nvidia, AWS, and Google have created rackscale systems that are deployed today, and that AMD was working on it. …

Real-time visualization of AI / ML traffic matrix

Heatmap is available on GitHub. The application provides a real-time traffic matrix visualization of end-to-end traffic flowing across an Ethernet fabric. Each axis represents an ordered list of network addresses. The x-axis is a flow source and the y-axis is a flow destination.

For example, the Heatmap above comes from a large high performance compute cluster running a mixture of tasks. Traffic is concentrated along the diagonal, indicating that the job scheduler is packing related tasks in racks so that most traffic is confined to the rack.

Note: Live Dashboards links to a number dashboards showing live traffic, including the Heatmap above.

The next Heatmap shows a very different traffic pattern. In this case, RoCEv2 traffic generated by GPUs performing a NCCL AllReduce/AllGather collective operation using a ring algorithm. During the collective operation, each GPU sends data to its immediate neighbor (modulo the number of GPUs) in a logical ring, resulting in two nearly continuous lines on either size of the diagonal: one for forward traffic, and the other for return traffic associated with each flow.
The final example comes from a large data center hosting a mix of front end workloads. Unlike the backend networks, this network combines internal (East/West) Continue reading

netlab: The Caveats of Using Startup Configurations

Petr Ankudinov wrote an excellent comment about netlab Fast cEOS Configuration implementation. Paraphrasing the original comment:

If the use case is the initial lab deployment, why don’t you use containerlab startup-config option to change the device’s startup configuration?

I have to admit, I’m too old to boldly go with the just use the startup configuration approach. In ancient times, Cisco IOS did crazy stuff if you rearranged the commands in the startup configuration. But ignoring that historical trivia (Cisco IOS/XE seems to be doing just fine), there are several reasons why I decided to use the startup configurations (and you can use them with some containers) as the last resort:

Cloudflare One is the first SASE offering modern post-quantum encryption across the full platform

During Security Week 2025, we launched the industry’s first cloud-native post-quantum Secure Web Gateway (SWG) and Zero Trust solution, a major step towards securing enterprise network traffic sent from end user devices to public and private networks.

But this is only part of the equation. To truly secure the future of enterprise networking, you need a complete Secure Access Service Edge (SASE). 

Today, we complete the equation: Cloudflare One is the first SASE platform to support modern standards-compliant post-quantum (PQ) encryption in our Secure Web Gateway, and across Zero Trust and Wide Area Network (WAN) use cases.  More specifically, Cloudflare One now offers post-quantum hybrid ML-KEM (Module-Lattice-based Key-Encapsulation Mechanism) across all major on-ramps and off-ramps.

To complete the equation, we added support for post-quantum encryption to our Cloudflare IPsec (our cloud-native WAN-as-a-Service) and Cloudflare One Appliance (our physical or virtual WAN appliance that establish Cloudflare IPsec connections). Cloudflare IPsec uses the IPsec protocol to establish encrypted tunnels from a customer’s network to Cloudflare’s global network, while IP Anycast is used to automatically route that tunnel to the nearest Cloudflare data center. Cloudflare IPsec simplifies configuration and provides high availability; if a specific data center becomes unavailable, traffic Continue reading

Cloudflare outage on February 20, 2026

On February 20, 2026, at 17:48 UTC, Cloudflare experienced a service outage when a subset of customers who use Cloudflare’s Bring Your Own IP (BYOIP) service saw their routes to the Internet withdrawn via Border Gateway Protocol (BGP).

The issue was not caused, directly or indirectly, by a cyberattack or malicious activity of any kind. This issue was caused by a change that Cloudflare made to how our network manages IP addresses onboarded through the BYOIP pipeline. This change caused Cloudflare to unintentionally withdraw customer prefixes.

For some BYOIP customers, this resulted in their services and applications being unreachable from the Internet, causing timeouts and failures to connect across their Cloudflare deployments that used BYOIP. The website for Cloudflare’s recursive DNS resolver (1.1.1.1) saw 403 errors as well. The total duration of the incident was 6 hours and 7 minutes with most of that time spent restoring prefix configurations to their state prior to the change.

Cloudflare engineers reverted the change and prefixes stopped being withdrawn when we began to observe failures. However, before engineers were able to revert the change, ~1,100 BYOIP prefixes were withdrawn from the Cloudflare network. Some customers were able to restore their Continue reading

HN815: All About PCE

Traditional routing protocols like OSPF simply choose the “shortest” path. If the shortest path is full of traffic and there are alternate paths carrying nothing, OSPF can’t help you. Path Computation Element (PCE) along with Path Computation Element Protocol (PCEP) is a way to construct forwarding paths through the network based on factors that distributed... Read more »
