Best European alternatives to Cloudflare Workers in 2026
Run V8 isolate apps in Europe: how Eurobase, Scaleway Functions and European containers compare with Cloudflare Workers, and what each one doesn't support.
Eurobase is a close European alternative to Cloudflare Workers, because it runs apps on V8 isolates and builds them with the same Cloudflare adapters. It supports D1 and static assets, but not KV, R2, Durable Objects or queues. If your Worker depends on those, moving to any platform here means rewriting that part of the app.
The options at a glance
| Platform | Runs on | Starts at | Storage | Runs where |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Eurobase Workers | V8 isolates | Free, then €10 a month + VAT | D1 and static assets | European infrastructure |
| Scaleway Functions | Serverless functions | Free tier, then billed by use | Other Scaleway products | Your chosen region |
| A container on a European PaaS | Containers | From about €7 a month | Whatever you connect | Your chosen provider |
| Cloudflare Workers | V8 isolates | Free, then from $5 a month | D1, KV, R2, Durable Objects | Hundreds of locations worldwide |
What to check before you move
- Your bindings. List everything in your Wrangler config. On Eurobase, a config that declares KV, R2, Durable Objects or queues fails the build.
- Where it needs to run. A global network answers close to every user. A European platform answers fast in Europe and slower elsewhere.
- The Cache API. On Eurobase it accepts calls but stores nothing, so every lookup misses.
1. Eurobase Workers
Eurobase runs Next.js, Astro, Nuxt and other frameworks on V8 isolates, built from your Wrangler config with the Cloudflare adapters. Each D1 database is a SQLite database in your project, and its migrations run when a deployment activates.
- Best for: Workers that use only D1 and static assets, and frameworks with a Cloudflare adapter.
- Price: a Free plan with 50 minutes of CPU a month, then €10 a month with 500 minutes, or €20 a month with about 1,666 minutes, + VAT.
- What it lacks: KV, R2, Durable Objects, queues, a working Cache API and compute outside Europe.

2. Scaleway Functions
Scaleway is a French cloud provider with serverless functions billed by use.
- Best for: teams already on Scaleway who can adapt their handlers.
- Price: 400,000 GB-s and 1 million requests free each month, then €0.50 per 100,000 GB-s and €0.15 per million requests.
- What it lacks: the Workers API. Expect to rewrite the entry point and storage calls.
3. A container on a European platform
Scalingo, Clever Cloud and Sliplane can all run your app as a long-lived server.
- Best for: apps that have outgrown request-based limits.
- What it lacks: isolate-level start times.
Can you restrict Cloudflare to Europe instead?
Partly. A D1 database can be restricted to the EU jurisdiction, but Cloudflare's docs say Workers may still access that database from anywhere in the world. The jurisdiction only controls where the database itself runs and stores data. Cloudflare remains a US company, with terms under California law.
Frequently asked questions
Does Eurobase run Cloudflare Workers code?
It runs Workers built from a Wrangler config with the Cloudflare adapters, as long as the Worker uses only D1 and static assets.
Is there a European alternative to Cloudflare R2?
Yes. Hetzner, OVHcloud, Exoscale and others offer S3-compatible storage. See the best object storage in Europe.
Is there a European alternative to Cloudflare D1?
Eurobase runs D1 databases on European infrastructure. See serverless SQLite in Europe.
