Vercel Functions package limit hits 5 GB

Vercel has raised the maximum package size limit for Vercel Functions running on Fluid compute from 250 MB to 5 GB. This 20x increase enables developers to bundle heavy Python AI/data libraries, run browser automation tools, process large images, and deploy bigger backend applications directly on Vercel's serverless architecture.

// ANALYSIS

Serverless is shedding its lightweight limitations, enabling heavy-duty machine learning and container-like backend architectures to run seamlessly on Vercel.

–**Python and AI Ready**: Heavy packages like PyTorch, pandas, and other data science frameworks can now run on Vercel serverless without complex size-slimming workarounds.
–**Headless Browsers**: Browser automation tools (e.g., Puppeteer and Playwright) can be bundled directly with functions for web scraping and PDF generation.
–**Large Backends**: Traditional backend apps that exceeded the 250 MB ceiling can now migrate easily to Fluid compute.
