# How Nodecraft Built a Scalable Game Server Platform with Cloudflare and Neon

**[Neon](https://daily.dev/sources/neontech)** · 4 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Nodecraft, a game server hosting platform supporting 30+ games, migrated from legacy infrastructure to a serverless backend using Cloudflare Workers and Neon (serverless Postgres). The new stack runs game configuration logic at the edge via Cloudflare Workers, uses Neon as the central database, and leverages Cloudflare Hyperdrive for connection pooling and query caching. Neon's database branching feature is used for isolated developer environments, PR-based migration testing, and resettable live conference demos.
