Leaving aside what "edge" really means, for me personally, this is about connecting a website running on Deno Deploy with a database.
As a hobbyist doing recreational programming, I don't want to pay for a website when it gets no traffic. Everything needs to start up on demand and shut down when idle.
This means that cold start time is what really matters. Since Deno Deploy has no persistent storage yet, both the frontend and the database need to start up on first request. Having a multi-region database doesn't help if needs to be running all the time and doesn't start up very fast.
As for latency when warmed up, I plan to deal with that by avoiding round trips with stored procedures and caching.
Here's my "hello world" website. Any advice on technologies to check out would be welcome.
