> I don't get what "the edge" is here. I understand what the edge is with Cloudflare and how it makes sense to run certain applications there but Wasmer doesn't have this kind of infrastructure, does it? It does, and the product page (https://wasmer.io/products/edge https://wasmer.io/products/edge) makes it a lot clearer than the linked announcement that Wasmer Edge is basically "Cloudflare Workers for Wasm". The chart at the bottom of the page¹ shows what Wasmer thinks Wasmer Edge completes with — Cloudflare Workers, Amazon Lambda, Fly.io, and "Cloud" (whatever that is). The most significant differentiator seems to be that Wasmer Edge runs on browsers and phones in addition to servers in the cloud, which makes it "edgier" than the alternatives. ¹ Note that it calls the service "Wasmer Deploy" instead of "Wasner Edge", which I assume is a mistake.
