Awesome! I'm glad there are more options for folks deploying Next.js apps. For what it's worth, the majority of Next.js apps we see deployed are self-hosted using a Node.js server[1] or Docker[2]. Would love to hear more your opinion why SST instead of one of these :)

To make sure I'm understanding SST, it builds off serverless-nextjs[3], correct? And then ads the features listed above on top, most notably CDK support?

Yeah exactly, it builds on parts of serverless-nextjs.

It's pretty much to run it on serverless infrastructure as opposed to on containers. And to take advantage of Lambda@Edge.
