Apps That Shouldn’t Be Built at the Edge | Fastly
Sean Leach
Progressive developers are increasingly using the edge of the network to power more performant and customized apps. With the use cases mounting, it seems there's very little that can't be built at the edge. And aside from a few exceptions, that just might be true.

State at the edge
Peter Bourgon
With the introduction of Compute, Fastly provides a richer model for the CPU. WebAssembly, powered and secured by the Lucet compiler and runtime, unlocks essentially arbitrary code execution within each request lifecycle. This raises the immediate question: what would a richer model for memory, or state, look like?

Leveling up observability with Compute
MJ Jones
Observability is hard. Distributed systems, dev and testing environments, and outside vendors all complicate the problem. With Compute, Fastly wants to make observability easier. Here’s what we’re doing.

Why Compute does not yet support JavaScript
Sean Leach
Building our own compiler toolchain allows Compute to be both performant and secure. It also means we have to bring developers’ most-loved language into the fold in the right way.
