Edge Application

Experience instant global deployment of serverless applications, ensuring superior performance, unmatched reliability, and effortless scalability.

Edge Application, powered by CDNetworks’ extensive CDN network, empowers you to build and deploy serverless functions directly at the network edge. This distributed architecture brings computation and data processing closer to users, enabling ultra-low latency, rapid response times, and enhanced reliability while optimizing costs. By decentralizing application logic and reducing reliance on centralized servers, Edge Applications streamline workflows, decrease network transmission expenses, and unlock new possibilities for real-time interactions and high-availability services.

Lower Latency and Less Bandwidth Costs

Enjoy lower latency from a distributed cloud than conventional centralized clouds by bringing your application to locations much closer to your users. Optimize bandwidth costs by allowing more data to be processed at the edge which would otherwise need to be moved around.

Lower Latency and Less Bandwidth Costs
Faster and Easier Application Delivery at Scale

Faster and Easier Application Delivery at Scale

Focus on code, not Ops, with no clusters to manage and no servers to operate. Simply push your application code and have your application delivered to the edge globally in just seconds. The far-reaching coverage provided by the ECP infrastructure reduces the need to integrate with multiple clouds in order to establish a global footprint.
