Edge computing providers

I’m looking into Edge computing at work. By Edge computing I mean running WASM programs in lots and lots of smallish computers in places near to actual people (rather than in huge cloud data centres). I think it’s cool because I love Rust, and Rust is the leading language to compile to WASM.

Here are some companies providing Edge computing services:

  • Fastly – good links with WASM community (hired Mozilla devs), and early adopters – custom WASM engine wasmtime.
  • Cloudflare – huge, and early adopters – WASM engine is Google V8.
  • AWS Lambda@Edge – docs are light on detail, but it looks like a real offering, probably.
