Ask HN: What's “The Edge”?
Is it any server infrastructure that responds geographically close to the user? Or should it also be "serverless" and have V8 isolates? Or is it just a buzzword for Deno Deploy and derivates?
Not necessarily tied to v8 isolates, for example fly.io and others let's you run any container on "The Edge".
I think CDNs were the original concept but the name evolved away from "content" to indicate that you can run your business logic too
