I can’t be the only person who doesn’t know what ‘at the edge’ means in this context. Any useful links to educate myself?

  "At the edge" means closer to the end user. Maybe you have a central server with the master database in Virginia, USA and edge servers with read-only follower databases near various big cities where your customers live. The point of edges is to provide lower-latency access due to their proximity. They also reduce load on the master server, but you don't need edges to do that.
