The HarperDB Next.js component recalibrates web app development by eliminating the overhead of network requests between backend systems. By running a Next.js application directly within HarperDB, latency associated with HTTP or WebSocket operations is eliminated, allowing your app to access database resources directly.

This tight integration streamlines server-side actions, enabling faster, more efficient data retrieval and processing. Combined with Next.js’s dynamic rendering capabilities, the result is lightning-fast load times for static pages and highly responsive dynamic content.

Together HarperDB and Next.js offer a game-changing approach to web development: simpler workflows, superior performance, and scalability built in.
