Publish once, serve fast everywhere.

Payload wakes on demand in Fly.io, writes to Turso, and triggers a Cloudflare Pages build. The site ships as SSG through the CDN, while R2 stores media with on-demand processing.

Architecture

How it flows

1. CMS wakes

Fly.io auto-starts Payload when editors open the admin panel.

2. Content commits

Turso persists entries via libSQL while R2 keeps media close to the edge.

3. CDN refresh

A deploy hook triggers Cloudflare Pages to rebuild the static site.

Notes

Ready for the next publish.

Keep Payload and Pages connected with a deploy hook. Every publish stays fast, fresh, and cost-aware.
