Self-hosted distributed durable objects, novel infrastructure concept with strategic implications for serverless.
Summary
Deno's celld is an open-source daemon that runs Cloudflare Workers and Durable Objects on self-hosted infrastructure, using per-object SQLite databases replicated to S3-compatible storage. Nodes coordinate solely through object-storage compare-and-swap on a shared bucket, eliminating the need for a control plane, consensus protocol, or membership service. Idle cells hibernate to near-zero resource usage, and the system shards by construction since each object is its own database, reducing contention and blast radius.
