I am already running an API service on Zeit now using a golang container that adds the binary and a csv file to a scratch image and re-reads the csv on each request (all requests take less than 0.3 seconds so i have not optimized).

Currently I have to make sure to set min instances to 1 on the 'production' version of the API and set min instances = 0 to older versions.

Will have to try before knowing for sure but I seems like switching to serverless docker would mean I don't have to make the distinction between 'old production' and 'new production' anymore and keep servicing requests to very old versions of my API without an expensive (7 seconds) cold boot.

Nice!




You can alias your deployment and try to add a scaling rule to the alias.

So, you don't scale up and down as you deploy. Once you call the `now alias` it'll take care of the scaling.
