# Deployment options for JSS Next.js apps

Next.js applications can be hosted using various services, depending on the prerendering form and your preference.

> [!important]
> [Headless server-side rendering using the JSS proxy](https://doc.sitecore.com/xp/en/developers/hd/22/sitecore-headless-development/walkthrough--rendering-a-jss-app-server-side-using-the-headless-jss-proxy.html) is *neither needed nor compatible with Next.js JSS applications*.

## Deploying on Vercel

The creators of Next.js, Vercel, offer deployment and hosting solutions *optimized for Next.js*. They support all Next.js features, including incremental static site (re-)generation, hybrid rendering, and internationalization. Your application can be deployed directly from source control and optimized through Vercel's edge network and serverless functions. Refer to the following resources for more information about deploying to Vercel:

- [Deploy your front-end application to Vercel](https://doc.sitecore.com/sai/en/developers/jss/22/jss-sai/deploy-your-front-end-application-to-vercel.html "Deploy your front-end application to Vercel").
- [Next.js documentation on Vercel deployment](https://nextjs.org/docs/deployment#vercel-recommended).

## Node.js Server

You can deploy Next.js JSS apps to any hosting provider or environment that supports Node.js. For more information, refer to the following resources:

- [Next.js documentation on Node.js Server deployment](https://nextjs.org/docs/deployment#nodejs-server).
- [A discussion on Next.js and Docker](https://nextjs.org/docs/deployment#docker-image).
