#edge-computing

Deploy edge computing solutions with CDN optimization for improved performance and global content delivery. Edge architecture: 1. Edge locations: global distribution, 50+ locations worldwide, <50ms latency to users. 2. Edge functions: serverless compute at edge, request processing, content personalization. 3. Cache hierarchy: origin server → regional cache → edge cache, intelligent cache invalidation. CDN optimization: 1. Content delivery: static assets, dynamic content acceleration, image optimization. 2. Caching strategies: TTL configuration (1 hour for images, 5 minutes for APIs), cache tags for invalidation. 3. Compression: Brotli/Gzip compression (70% size reduction), WebP image format. Edge computing platforms: 1. AWS CloudFront + Lambda@Edge: global CDN, edge functions, real-time personalization. 2. Cloudflare Workers: serverless JavaScript execution, API processing, security filtering. 3. Azure CDN + Functions: content delivery, edge compute, IoT data processing. Performance optimization: 1. HTTP/3 support: QUIC protocol, reduced connection time, improved mobile performance. 2. Prefetching: predictive content loading, resource hints, service worker integration. 3. Adaptive delivery: device-specific content, network-aware optimization. Security at edge: 1. DDoS protection: traffic filtering, rate limiting, bot detection. 2. WAF integration: SQL injection prevention, XSS protection, custom rules. 3. SSL/TLS termination: certificate management, HTTP to HTTPS redirection. Monitoring: real-time analytics, edge performance metrics, user experience monitoring, geographic performance analysis.
