Is it possible to view an account wide “Service Map” or “Topology View” showing all Workers, Durable Objects, and their bindings/dependencies in the dashboard?

Currently, each individual Worker page in the dashboard displays its bindings and dependencies (Durable Objects, KV, R2, etc.), which is helpful, but there’s no system-wide view that connects them all.

I am trying to create a worker with a durable object attached via Terraform. However, I keep on getting “Cannot create binding for class 'Aggregator' that is not exported by the script.” However, I do export it:

import { DurableObject } from 'cloudflare:workers';
export class Aggregator extends DurableObject { /* ... */ }
export default { async fetch() { /* ... */ } }

import { DurableObject } from 'cloudflare:workers';
export class Aggregator extends DurableObject { /* ... */ }
export default { async fetch() { /* ... */ } }

import { DurableObject } from 'cloudflare:workers';
export class Aggregator extends DurableObject { /* ... */ }
export default { async fetch() { /* ... */ } }

import { DurableObject } from 'cloudflare:workers';
export class Aggregator extends DurableObject { /* ... */ }

Marak•10/9/25, 12:15 AM

You'll want to ensure that the Durable Object class is exported in your main workerfile

// Export Durable Object
export { MyDurable } from './durables/MyDurable.js';

// Export Durable Object
export { MyDurable } from './durables/MyDurable.js';

// Export Durable Object
export { MyDurable } from './durables/MyDurable.js';

// Export Durable Object
export { MyDurable } from './durables/MyDurable.js';

You also need to configure the

wrangler

I have a question about durable object pricing with RpcTarget. If my durable object has returned an RpcTarget (allowing me to amortize multiple calls within the same RPC session) am I correct to assume that while the RpcTarget stub is alive (hasn't been disposed of), the durable object must be actively running and billing me? I have a worker that makes multiple calls to a durable object, but between each call there's slow calls to an external service. If the durable object will be billing me for the whole rpc session, my guess is it would be cheaper to break into multiple shorter rpc sessions. Appreciate any clarifications!

You can configure that timeout to be longer, i forget the exact numbers, maybe 5 or 10 min? If you have jobs that need even more than that, then DOs alone aren't the right thing you might want to look into Containers, that's currently the only way to run long jobs in CF

L

Larry•10/9/25, 2:11 PM

You fire and forget to offload it to another DO whose only purpose is to send fetch requests, await responses, and send them back to the originating DO. The trick is to pass in the id of the original DO so this RequestProxy DO knows who to dial up again once it gets the response. Under load, this DO never hibernates but it's only one DO not all of your others.

I'm in the process of open sourcing a lot of pieces of our stack right now. The first drop is going to be a testing module that works great with WebSockets and simulates browser behavior (cookies, origin, etc.). After that, I may port our RequestProxy DO to the open source project. I'll come back here once it's published. Any day now for the testing, rpc, and utils modules. Just in the final steps of documentation editing.

1984 Ford Laser•10/9/25, 9:42 PM

Would this work:
DO A is acting as a WebSocket client, not using hibernation. DO B connects to DO A via WebSocket, DO A acts as the server and DO B as the client. Will DO B be able to hibernate, while A stays pinned to memory? In my scenario I'm already using DO A as a WS server for a different service but I want to direct data from A to B and using WS feels the best way to do it if B will hibernate

Larry•10/10/25, 12:01 AM

I haven't done any of this myself but I believe that RPC has the concept of a "session". I don't think you pay for requests during a "session". I also believe that sessions timeout though so I'm guessing you have to sense when that happens and create a new session.
