Deploy your Docker app to Vercel
Step-by-step deployment help for Docker apps on Vercel. We fix Docker-specific deployment issues, configure Vercel, and get your app live. From $19.
Docker issues we fix before deploying
Common Docker problems that affect Vercel deployments.
Running as root user
Containers running processes as root, so a container breakout gives the attacker root access to the host system.
Secrets baked into image layers
API keys, database passwords, or .env files copied into the Docker image during build, permanently stored in image layers even if deleted later.
Bloated image size
Using full OS base images (ubuntu, node:latest) instead of slim or alpine variants, resulting in 1GB+ images that are slow to pull and deploy.
No multi-stage build
Build dependencies (compilers, dev packages) included in the production image, increasing size and attack surface.
Vercel deployment issues we check for
Common Vercel problems that break Docker apps in production.
Serverless function size exceeds 50MB limit
AI tools bundle heavy dependencies into API routes without tree-shaking, pushing serverless functions past Vercel's 50MB compressed size limit and failing the build.
Edge runtime incompatible with Node.js APIs
Generated code uses fs, crypto, or other Node.js built-ins inside Edge Runtime routes, causing deployment failures since Edge only supports a subset of Web APIs.
ISR revalidation not triggering correctly
Incremental Static Regeneration configured with stale revalidate values or missing on-demand revalidation hooks, serving outdated content indefinitely.
Environment variables missing in production
Secrets added to .env.local but not configured in the Vercel dashboard, causing runtime crashes only in production while working perfectly in local dev.

Frequently asked questions
How do I deploy a Docker app to Vercel?
We handle Docker deployments to Vercel end to end. Start with our code audit ($19) to identify deployment blockers specific to your Docker project, then we configure Vercel, fix issues, and get your app live in production.
What Docker issues affect Vercel deployments?
Docker projects commonly have running as root user and secrets baked into image layers. On Vercel, these combine with serverless function size exceeds 50mb limit and edge runtime incompatible with node.js apis to cause deployment failures.
Can SpringCode deploy my Docker project to Vercel?
Yes. We specialize in deploying Docker applications to Vercel. We audit your codebase for Docker-specific issues, configure Vercel correctly, and handle the full deployment so your app runs reliably in production.
What does Docker deployment to Vercel cost?
Our code audit ($19) identifies all Vercel deployment blockers in your Docker project. Full deployment assistance is scoped with a fixed quote after the audit — no hourly billing or surprise charges.
