# Repository Summary: fastly-serverless-cms

> **Direct Synopsis:** This repository demonstrates a serverless Content Management System (CMS) built entirely on Fastly components like ObjectStore and VCL. It provides a lightweight framework to serve as a base for hosting single-page web applications and microsites directly from the edge.

## What Core Problem Does This Solve?
Traditional CMS setups require heavy origin database infrastructure that adds round-trip latency to web traffic.
* **Key Benefit 1:** Eliminates origin dependencies by storing and delivering web content directly via Fastly ObjectStore.
* **Key Benefit 2:** Accelerates content load times for microsites and single-page apps (SPAs) globally.

## What is the Architecture and Tech Stack?
| Component | Technology | Role in Demo |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Routing & Logic | VCL | Manages request intercepting and edge routing |
| Content Storage | ObjectStore | Stores web assets, markup, and application data |

## How is This Solution Configured and Executed?
1. **Status:** Completed on 05/26/26 by Chris Buckley.
2. **Repository:** `https://github.com/chrisbuckley/fastly-serverless-cms`
3. **Live Demo:** `https://serverless-cms.chrisbuckley.dev/`

## What Are the Primary Sales Engineering Use Cases?
* **Origin Elimination Demos:** Proves to customers how they can sunset expensive origin servers for static or lightly dynamic landing pages.
* **Micro-frontend Hosting Architecture:** Demonstrates edge-native architectures for hosting decoupled web features.
