Blueboat is an all-in-one, multi-tenant serverless JavaScript runtime written in Rust, designed for frictionless horizontal scalability. It provides a Web API-compatible environment (fetch, Request, Response) where local resources like files and sockets are replaced with distributed-system equivalents such as key-value stores and event streams.

Use cases

• run serverless javascript functions on my own infrastructure
• self-host a cloudflare workers alternative
• deploy multi-tenant web apps with a javascript runtime
• build http apis with fetch and router apis
• replace local files and databases with a distributed kv store
• run typescript web services in a sandboxed runtime

When to choose

• you want a Cloudflare Workers-like runtime you can self-host
• you need multi-tenant isolation and horizontal scalability over single-node performance
• you prefer Web API compatibility (fetch, Request, Response) in a serverless environment
• you want built-in KV storage, MySQL/PostgreSQL access, and WebSocket support in one runtime

When to avoid

• you need Node.js compatibility or npm native modules
• your app depends on local filesystem, raw sockets, or FFI
• you need a mature, actively released production runtime - the latest release dates to early 2023
• you want single-node performance optimization rather than distributed-system abstractions
