Exploring the Edge Compute Ecosystem

Over the past few years there has been a rise in new platforms and services that make it easier than ever to deploy distributed applications that run as close to their users as possible. Innovations in serverless computing have enabled CDNs to offer increasingly dynamic capabilities, even replacing the need for traditional backend applications for some use cases.

Through exceptional developer experience these platforms are reducing the barrier of entry for achieving these distributed architectures. It is no longer necessary to be an expert in distributed systems to achieve blazing fast results, reliability, and resiliency these platforms provide out of the box.

This blog is dedicated to exploring the ecosystem of platforms, tools, and services that are enabling this paradigm shift. Some of the things you can expect to see covered here are:

Hosting Platforms

• Cloudflare
• Vercel
• Netlify
• Fastly
• Fly

Data Stores

• Upstash
• FaunaDB
• EdgeDB

Frameworks

• Next.js
• Remix
• Vitedge
