Sub-second artifact deployments are now supported in Vercel CLI
Vercel CLI now allows for deployments of static artifacts in under one second.
This capability enhances the deployment speed for developers using Vercel, enabling quicker iterations and feedback. It is particularly beneficial for rapid prototyping and sharing static content, which can improve workflow efficiency. However, there are limitations on the number and size of files that can be deployed instantly.

Deployments can now be completed in under one second with the Vercel CLI.
Supported deployments include up to 10 HTML or Markdown files with a maximum total size of 5 MB.
To utilize this feature, users must update to Vercel CLI version 59.16.0 or later.
THE READ
What the cluster adds up to.
The introduction of sub-second artifact deployments in Vercel CLI significantly reduces the time developers spend deploying static content, allowing teams to share prototypes and updates almost instantaneously. This change is particularly beneficial for use cases that require rapid iteration and immediate feedback, such as A/B testing or showcasing features in development.
To take advantage of this new deployment speed, developers must ensure they are using Vercel CLI version 59.16.0 or later. This requirement means organizations may need to update their tooling and potentially train team members on new deployment commands, which could involve a small overhead but is likely outweighed by the benefits of faster deployments.
However, it's important to note that there are restrictions on the types and sizes of files that can be deployed instantly, specifically limiting users to 10 files and a total size of 5 MB. This could restrict the use of this feature for larger projects or complex static sites that exceed these limits, necessitating a more traditional deployment approach in such cases.
