Are you doing anything with "edge compute"?

I put "edge compute" in quotations because I think it's a flexible definition, but it's a fascinating area of software development.

We've been early in this game with DEV in a way, since we use logic at the edge via Fastly to make certain choices about content, and often don't have to go all the way to the origin. But since we established our process, the options within this field are becoming more and more interesting.

Cloudflare workers and the recently announced Compute@Edge by Fastly represent pretty darn cool options. Lambda@Edge is another interesting one.

This really is one of the coolest trends IMO. It's hard to argue with the benefits of cutting down latency and running performant code nearer to the end user.
