Wasmer Edge
Deploy your applications to the Edge, instantly.
Overview
Wasmer Edge is a platform designed for running WebAssembly applications globally. It allows developers to compile code from various languages (like Rust, Go, C++) into a Wasm binary and deploy it to Wasmer's edge network. This provides extreme performance, security, and the ability to run complex applications close to users.
✨ Key Features
- WebAssembly (Wasm) native
- Run code from Rust, Go, C++, Swift, and more
- High-performance, near-native speed
- Secure sandboxing
- Global edge network
- Pay-per-use pricing
🎯 Key Differentiators
- Focus purely on the WebAssembly ecosystem
- Universal binaries that can run anywhere (edge, desktop, server)
- Strong open-source tooling and community
Unique Value: Unlock the full potential of WebAssembly for building fast, secure, and portable applications that can be deployed to the edge instantly.
🎯 Use Cases (5)
✅ Best For
- Running a Rust-based API server
- Deploying a machine learning model for real-time inference
💡 Check With Vendor
Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:
- Simple web request manipulations
- Applications that are already JavaScript-based and don't require Wasm
🏆 Alternatives
Provides a more focused and powerful WebAssembly experience compared to platforms where Wasm is a secondary feature. It's more application-oriented than Fastly's request/response model.
