Managing Media Without a Server

on YouTube ↗38m

" summary

Shows how to manage uploads and transformations entirely from serverless functions using Next.js (or Netlify/Vercel) and the Cloudinary platform: uses Cloudinary v2 SDK plus environment-stored API key/secret to list and upload resources, runs AI add-ons for background removal + auto-tagging, and either polls or receives notifications for async processing. Demonstrates a working CloudyCam webcam app, on-demand Next.js static page generation with blocking fallback, and practical code for secure signed uploads and resource polling.
