As a Deno fan I was surprised to learn that the free tier for Deno Deploy includes 100k requests per day and 100GB of bandwidth monthly. I know I'll be trying it out now.
So less than 17 minutes of CPU time per day - not a lot, but also not nothing.. But at 10ms per request, what would one use it for? Just server-side rendering for something simple?

what was the product and the scale then?

No, Netlify actually uses Deno to some degree: https://www.netlify.com/blog/announcing-serverless-compute-w...
Right, but the $21M of funding seems to be for Deno Deploy, the product, not Deno, the CLI.
Netlify is using Deploy

https://deno.com/deploy/pricing is their business model. They charge you for CPU and bandwidth more than they pay for it.
Right, my point is that any number of cloud providers could swoop in and offer the same product for probably cheaper

If you can answer (for legal or other reasons you might not be able to): What kind of monthly bills did your setup have and how many req/s did you serve (in lack of a better metric)? It'd also be useful to know average min/max response time if that's something you remember. I wish that was a good way o…
There is more than "raw dollar amount on monthly bill" to account for in cost, as well. For one, there's stability and the toll that takes on both your team and your customers. Not saying non-serverless apps are not stable by nature, but I've now been part of two teams that have seen the same types of benefits and those benefits line up with the "sales pitch" benefits.

This question is going to make me sound like a jerk, but why do you want to write your back-end in JS? Deno looks like a great improvement over node.js, but I don't feel compelled to use it. It seems like people jumped to node based on some performance promises that didn't really pay off (IMO). And since then, we have newer options like Rust, Go, and Elixir as performant back-end options, and even older choices like…

Old code does not mean bad code. Seems like a silly thing to look at, honestly.
A bunch of java was written pre-java8, does that make it all bad? No, no it doesnt.
