Architecture Patterns for High-Performance SaaS
Use server components for data-heavy views, client components for interactivity, and API routes or server actions for backend logic. Layer in caching and CDN for static and semi-static content. For global SaaS, consider edge functions for low latency. Next.js 16 supports all of this out of the box, so you can focus on product instead of wiring.
