How these alternatives were chosen
Tools Cloudflare Workers names as alternatives that this directory also publishes, followed by others in Hosting. The order is not a ranking, and "—" means we have not checked that field — not that the answer is no.
Cloudflare Workers also lists AWS Lambda, Google Cloud Functions, Azure Functions, Vercel Functions as alternatives. Those are not in this directory yet, so there is nothing to compare — and nothing to link to.
