Discover how WASM at the edge pushes beyond cloud limits, enabling low-latency, secure, and distributed computing. In this talk, we’ll explore Python+Wasm patterns for edge deployments, covering performance, security, and real-world use cases that blend cloud and edge seamlessly.
As cloud computing reshapes traditional backend architectures, emerging demands for ultra-low latency and data locality reveal its limits. Enter edge computing—where WASM serves as a critical bridge between centralized cloud capacity and the need for distributed processing.
In this session, we’ll dive deep into how WebAssembly enables lightweight, secure, and fast compute workloads at the edge, with an emphasis on real-world use cases that leverage Python’s unique strengths for predictable performance, while coexisting with cloud resources. We’ll showcase real-world examples of edge computing implementations, as well as the architectural tradeoffs and technical challenges we face at Edgee to power features such as data collection and dynamic A/B testing. We’ll share how we use open-source WebAssembly components for edge deployment and how that affects the website performance of our customers.
Join us to discover how to build architectures that seamlessly blend cloud and edge, unlocking a new level of responsiveness and efficiency.
