Can I run Magento on Vercel / Netlify?

No. Magento 2 is a PHP monolith with stateful sessions, persistent database connections, scheduled cron jobs, queue consumers, indexers, and message brokers (RabbitMQ / SQS). None of that fits the Vercel / Netlify model, which is stateless serverless functions + edge-cached static assets.

What Vercel / Netlify can do for a Magento store:

• Host a PWA / headless frontend talking to Magento’s REST / GraphQL APIs. PWA Studio, Vue Storefront, Hyvä Commerce headless, all of these front-ends deploy beautifully on Vercel / Netlify.
• Edge-cache static catalog pages using on-demand revalidation.
• Host a separate marketing / blog site that links into Magento.

What stays on Magento-capable PHP hosting (AWS / Azure / GCP / MageMojo / Nexcess / Adobe Cloud):

• The Magento backend (admin, cron, indexers, integrations).
• The database (MySQL / Aurora).
• The cache layer (Redis).
• The search layer (OpenSearch).
• The order / quote / customer data.

So if you’re thinking “move to Vercel,” what you’re really planning is a headless migration where Vercel hosts the storefront and your existing Magento becomes a commerce-API backend on its existing hosting. That’s a separate engagement ($40k, $120k) and a different decision tree than the “which hosting provider” question this calculator addresses.
