Fastly’s Compute@Edge™ represents the next generation of serverless computing; purpose-built for better performance, reduced latency, and enhanced visibility and security.
Customers benefit from an instantly available, highly performant environment that essentially eliminates cold start issues. Compute@Edge resources are available within microseconds, are elastic (eliminating the need to pre-plan and deploy infrastructure), and can instantly scale to tens of thousands of requests per second.
Compute@Edge offers superior performance without sacrificing platform security and reliability. By creating and destroying sandboxes for each individual request flowing through the platform, Compute@Edge minimizes the attack surface area present in typical multi-tenant serverless environments while still providing superior execution times.
