[Feature] : Separate Hosting of Server and Client Files for Vercel (CI/CD)

Description:

Currently, when deploying server-side and client-side code together on Vercel using CI/CD, it can be challenging to manage separate scaling needs and security concerns. For instance, exposing server-side code publicly might introduce security vulnerabilities. Additionally, serverless functions on Vercel may require different build processes compared to client-side assets.

Proposed Solution:

We propose a feature that allows developers to configure separate build pipelines for server and client code in their CI/CD workflows. This could involve:

• The ability to specify different build commands and environments for each codebase.
• Support for deploying server-side code to a private backend while serving client-side files from Vercel's CDN.
• Integration with Vercel's serverless functions framework for seamless execution of server-side logic.

Benefits:

By enabling separate hosting, this feature would offer several advantages:

• Enhanced security: Server-side code remains private, mitigating potential security risks.
• Improved scalability: Server and client deployments can be scaled independently based on their respective requirements.
• Greater flexibility: Developers can leverage Vercel's serverless functions seamlessly while maintaining a secure separation from public client-side assets.

Additional Context:

This feature would be particularly valuable for building serverless applications on Vercel where server-side logic is required but needs to be kept separate from publicly exposed client-side code.
