This is part of why the PaaS take has worked so well for us. People who think they want edge have all kinds of different needs. When we realized that all full stack devs could benefit from something kind-of-like-edge it helped us do more focused work.
- daxfohl 4y agoYeah, I hope it works! Prior to MS I was the solo dev for Smilebooth (a photobooth company), and when I joined Edge Zones my north star to shrink the minimum footprint (I think it was three racks initially) so that you could load an edge zone host on like a Smilebooth console or something and manage photobooth fleets by deploying Web Apps directly to them. (I realized that was ridiculously far-fetched at the time and that there were probably better ways of achieving that outcome, but I certainly didn't foresee the minimum footprint growing so dramatically)! And, like I said earlier, I hope to see what a real edge IaaS solution looks like too, if such a thing is even possible. Maybe the IaaS that would allow a build-your-own-CDN.
